And then there's coal. The difference between nuclear and coal is that when nuclear has a horrible accident, it kills fewer people than coal kills as part of its normal expected operation.

The great thing is that coal is not the alternative in 2025.

Renewables are forcing enormous amounts of coals and fossil gas off grids around the world as we speak.

The difference between nuclear and coal is that when nuclear has a horrible accident, it kills as many people right here and makes as much land uninhabitable right here as coal does in our enemy countries within its normal expected operation.
