Meanwhile Fukushima still uninhabitable and currently as we speak dumping tritium into the ocean
Sure but fossil fuels about to make the whole planet uninhabitable... And massive oil spills in the ocean are much too common
But solar and wind don't. Why must we use nuclear. We could weatherproof houses and paint rooftops white. There are a million solutions that don't require me to get radiation poisoned
These things are certainly going to be part of the solution. We want multiple sources of power and we want to improve the efficiency of our energy usage. But we are still going to need ways of generating power when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining. And here nuclear is one of the safest options.
