Is there another way we can reliably meet current and future energy demands?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Of course there is. As the planet becomes more inhospitable to human life, demand will go down, eventually reaching zero.

Nope, there isn’t. Despite what the green gang thinks. Not a chance. Hence, nuclear is the logical choice.

It really is. It wouldnt take that long & would do a damned fine job of powering all kinds of stuff. Period.
