Comment on “Energy in the Future”: a time capsule of energy concerns from 1953parent

Comments

Anyone who argue against nuclear while failing to acknowledge the issues of solar and wind, which are 10 times more problematic, can't be truthful.

Unless we enter a _major_ era of degrowth there is no way we'll get out of fossil fuels without nuclear.

What are the 10x more problematic issues with solar and wind?

Briefly: solar and wind energy requires sun or wind and tons of space relative to fossil/nuclear. Not every place has those.
