Comment on YSK that risks to exposure of nuclear radition are often over exaggerated by considering a Linear No Threshold (LNT), which does not match with many studies.

Nuclear plants receive subsidies in the US and most European countries.

but in most places, the official policy is not to expand their infra. it is either maintainance only, and/or decommision at end of life.

Subsidies for nuclear plants are usually payed out during construction and decommission of plants, but that’s still subsidies.

true.

but for other renewables, the actual material is subsidised. for example, in many places, solar panel installation recieve govt subsidies - 10-50%.
