Environment & Energy

There is a war in the Persian Gulf, in case you missed it. This is why Europe is switching to solar and wind as fast as it is.

The rest of your argument is a straw man putting words in my mouth that I never said. My issues with nuclear are environmental (there is a lot of waste that is difficult to dispose of), periodic catastrophic failures, cost, and time to get a plant up and running.

The battery and heat technology innovations are happening much faster than anything in nuclear. The chances of a traditional nuclear plant being obsolete by the time it opens is one of the reasons no one is building new ones. Heck, even cold fusion could be possible before a plant would be opened.
