I disagree completely. This text is oddly biased and in parts, completely false. It also dates from 2021.
Nuclear power is the single safest power source ever devised and does not suffer from intermittency. The fearmongering from anti-nuclear, anti-science campaigners in the 1970s was nothing but a gift to coal and advanced climate change by five years.
Climate change is an existential threat. Nuclear power is one of the answers.

I cannot even entertain this “debate” anymore because there isn’t one. Nuclear is superior across the board, even when we include renewables like solar and wind, and I am tried of people not getting that while the world burns.

You don’t think there’s debate about nuclear waste and how and where to store it? Because those are my reservations about nuclear power.

The part that annoys me the most, is people will doom about huge swaths of humanity dying in the future due to climate change, then bemoan and rage against building nuclear plants today, thus solving solving a huge portion of the issue.
I just do not understand people’s priorities, or if they really believe everything they say.
