You know that renewable Energy exists? In the time we would need to replace follils with nuclear we can insted build renewables and Storage capacitys and we would be way cheaper.
I’m mostly commenting on the fact that people are so concerned with the cost of nuclear plants yet they seem to not care about the cost of the damage that rampant fossil fuel production comes with. This has been the shitty argument for long before renewables became viable and nuclear would have been a much better stepping stone. There are also always going to be places where renewable energy won’t work or be enough.
Ok, fair enough. I also absolutely agree that we shaould have went for nuclear instead of coal, but now its to late and its faster to replace coal with renewables, than replacing it with nuclear.
but now its to late and its faster to replace coal with renewables, than replacing it with nuclear.
Nope, that’s bullshit. Nuclear development didn’t stop in the 80s and you can’t rely on renewables alone 'cos they’re not constant. You need a stable supply.

It’s never going to be a single solution problem.
