Mining coal IS dumb.
Nuclear is 3x more expensive than wind solar.
1 in 150 nuclear power plants blows up 👍

1 in 150 power plants built between 1950-1970 blow up. What if we had been innovating this whole time?
Wind and solar only work when the wind blows or the sun shines, obviously it's cheaper because it's complete garbage. Can't build a civilization that only works when it's windy, that's retarded
I didn’t specify a specific time frame however , are you forgetting #Fukashima 2015 ? Where all 4 reactors blew up ? Still rumbling on 8 years later. Who’s paying for all that ? Not the nuclear power industry.
With a 300mile #EV range I can quite happily wait for the wind to blow or sun to shine. Also you could power your house for a fortnight from a Ford F150 Lightning. Just plug the house in to the car.
I guarantee you solar + storage becomes viable in the next 100yrs, whereas uranium could be depleted in the same timeframe.
I'd rather adopt the free energy & innovate away on top of the baselayer energy of our planet.
