    ignorance about nuclear

    Nuclear is not going to happen. Not without governments deciding to fund plants 100% up front. The economics just don’t make sense.

    Not anymore.

      You must be living in a different reality.

      Even Japan is restarting their nuclear plants, while Fukushima is still in living memory.

        Restarting is fast and cheap.

        Building takes a decade and another one before you break even. How positive are you that you will be able to operate that plant until the end of its economic life?

        Are you willing to bet a few billions on it?
