Comment on EDF anticipates immediate reduction in nuclear output amid heatwaveparent

Comments

I wonder how you calculate the system cost for nuclear? Seems to me that dealing with the waste products is still an unsolved problem. Making whole areas of the globe uninhabitable by most biology for thousands of years seems like a pretty big cost . Instability and dependence due to centralized power generation also does cause lots of missed economic potential.

Do you have any evidence that oil and gas companies are deliberately spreading false information?

Not original parent, but: well, it's in their economic interest, and there are lobbyists and PACs denying CO2 caused climate change. I wonder who's financing them to do that if not the oil and gas industry? Who else would have such an incentive?
