    I’m not sure that oil companies are behind the various near and actual catastrophes of nuclear power plants. At least that’s what convinced me that it’s not worth the risk.

      If you take into account every nuclear related death and even include potential/indirect ones from radiation exposure (cancer) it’s still killed less people than just the physical extraction of fossil fuels. That’s not even getting into the potential/indirect deaths caused by the burning of the fuels/pollution.

      Not to mention modern day reactors are incredibly safe. Thorium reactors are pretty xool

      The propaganda around nuclear energy is insane
