    I always feel like I’m taking fucking crazy pill when we talk about nuclear energy.

    Are we forgetting Chernoble, 3 mile island, or even more recenlty fukishima?

    Sure, nuclear energy is great, cheap and reliable… but IF something goes catastrophically wrong, like I dunno… earth quakes, hurricanes, tornados, floods, etc (IE things we can’t really plan for) you run the risk of not being able to fix it easily…

    I guess I"m not a huge fan of making large swaths of the earth uninhabital if shit goes sideways.
