    Yes, I agree that there are risks involved.

    I think the risks with Fossil fuels are a lot higher:

    • instead of putting nuclear waste in the ground, we pump it in the air (fossil fuel waste is radioactive)
    • instead of nuclear proliferation, we support barbarist states such as saudi arabia

    So, the question between fossil and nuclear was never there. It was always nuclear and people that lobbied against it should go to jail for the rest of their lives for murder.

    Now, I have no clue how far along we are. This (site)[https://wisevoter.com/country-rankings/renewable-energy-by-country/] says we‘re at 17% global coverage and some people argue that rn we should invest every dollar/euro in renewables instead of nuclear.

    I can understand that argument. Not sure which makes more sence though.
