@kravietz The difference is that one of them will kill the neighbors if it is just slightly mismanaged. The other one just sits there.

One would think that Chernobyl and Fukushima would be enough of an argument at this point.

@tsturm

Each year hundreds of people die worldwide in accidents related to solar and wind power. You don't seem to care about them, do you?

@kravietz I don't want to reiterate decades of pro/con nuclear power discussions. Show me a reactor that won't blow up and a safe & practical way to store the byproducts for 1000s of years and we can talk.

> we can talk.

I don't think we can. You made your mind ages and and are totally immune to any data and arguments.

@kravietz I'm sorry. I didn't want to trigger your fervor for more nuclear power.

The article you linked originally seemed to me a little careless about why people are not into nuclear. I pointed that out.

And as somebody who personally biked through Chernobyl fallout as a teen, I know exactly why most Germans don't want anything to do with it.

@tsturm

But you do want 24/7 energy and you are ready to burn coal, oil and fossil gas to obtain it. Oh and you also certainly are concerned about climate change. Makes perfect sense πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
