Young climate activist tells Greenpeace to drop ‘old-fashioned’ anti-nuclear stance - Lemmy.world

Why do I feel like the call for more nuclear power has just been another sneaky ass ploy by Russia to use resources as a source for power?

The Long Arm of the Kremlin and the Politics of Uranium

A potential loss for Europe after the coup in Niger is a win for Putin.

The Washington Post
You do understand solar panels and wind mills have to be built, right? What do you think they’re made out of? Your comment is the most Reddit-esque snubby contrarian gotcha bs. “Other people have an opinion other than mine? No it must be the Russians trying to brainwash those dumber than me. I wouldn’t fall for it since I’m a smart cookie.” Russians historically fueled anti nuclear protests and scares in Germany. There isn’t a uranium shortage to speak of.

Oh, and Nuclear Power plants are just plopped down? Your comment wreaks of pie in the sky, uneducated bullshit.

Solar and Wind don’t take nearly as much fuel, maintenance, zoning, upfront costs or be subject to international power plays like nuclear power.

Do you not understand how bigger theoretical yield on investment = more development possibilities?
No they aren’t, for one and I wasn’t just talking about uranium but the refining of it - these definitely favor Russian in a war of resources.
