So glad to see this finally online. It's insane to me that countries like Germany want to kill nuclear power and also want to avert the climate crises. I get it - renewable is better, but it's simply not there yet. Nuclear is the best we have while we develop better and more efficient solar/wind power.

Ideally we could avoid the climate crisis without nuclear but the world isn't ideal and avoiding nuclear isn't possible rhe good thing is that a lot of waste can be used again like to power space probes to other planets
