With climate change looming, it seems so completely backwards to go back to using it again.

Is it coal miners pushing to keep their jobs? Fear of nuclear power? Is purely politically motivated, or are there genuinely people who believe coal is clean?

Edit, I will admit I was ignorant to the usage of coal nowadays.

Now I’m more depressed than when I posted this

    Or you could just make deals with Canada or Australia instead.

    The Russian supply problem is a very badly made up stawman if you think about it for more than 15 seconds.

      Sure, the Canadians just clap twice and the mines put out triple the Uranium they did before. It doesnt take years to expand mines or anything. Also the other sources in Niger or Mali are not at risk of needing replacement, since the region is super stable… Oh wait shit, that supply is also at risk since there was a coup in Niger just 6 weeks ago.
