And this is why I said changing the missconception that nuclear can’t be safe is hard. There are types of reactors safe by design.

Sure, no tech is foolproof, but have a look at how the molten salt reactor works. That kind of reactor doesn’t have a meltdown issue. That doesn’t mean things can’t still go wrong, but we have to do something about the emissions from these container ships burning the most crap of the fossil fuels… If we look at how many people die of deseases caused by air polution, the tiny risk of a nuclear accident looks a lot more acceptable. And that’s before we even consider how bad the climate changed in recent years.

We have to start educating ourselves and others on nuclear, because although renewables are cheaper, the energy storage for when there is no wind/sun is still very expensive and pretty crap tech(you have a phone, you know how the battery dies in 2-3 years). Also lithium won’t last forever so until we figure out something to replace it, nuclear can cover the gaps with considerably less emissions than dino juices and ancient biomass.
