    Better than coal or oil, it might even result in more R&D into reactor designs.

      There’s no shortage of modern reactor designs. We have amazing stuff designed and even prototyped and proven - low waste, safely-failing reactors that basically can’t melt down. All we really lack is funding and regulatory clearance to build more.

      Cortana, can you design a nuclear reactor to train you better?

            It is, because corporate greenwashing will tell you that they reduced their emissions when all they did was scale up production using green energy. Their actual emissions didn’t go down they just went down relative to their growth.

              I thought this was a generic nuclear bad response, but in that case I definitely agree.
