      Technically yes, people keep dieing on the windmills.

      This is not me saying we need to build less solar or wind. We still need to build more and we also need small modular reactors to provide base load. If we had the battery capacity to store renewables at scale I would be for it however we do not.

        Do you have a source for the claim that wind and solar are more dangerous than nuclear?

        I looked myself and from what I saw Solar and wind were safer than nuclear, not to mention cheaper and cleaner.

            it’s all fun and games if you just compare the deaths and ignore the fact that there is still a 2600km² area in Ukraine that is so toxic that no one can live in it, and that almost 40 years later.

            and that will be that way for thousands of years to come.
