Just one example of the lies and misinformation out there:

Smart people I know believe that we have to go Nuclear because it’s the only green way to achieve baseload.

When press on what baseload is, they seem to think it’s the minimum amount of power needed to keep the grid up.

Which for anyone listening in, is backwards, baseload is actually the minimum amount of load required because it’s un-economical to spin old coal burners down. That’s why people used to heat their water at night on the cheap, because the power HAD to go somewhere.

And there’s are smart people, just disinterested in the how and why of electricity generation.
They flick a switch, the lights come on.
Every 3 months they pay a bill and tut-tut about how expensive it is now “because of the green obsession”.
