Agree that since nat gas, oil, coal, etc are taken from ‘Mudder Gaea’ they should be considered ‘green’. Nuclear is a bit of a different animal albeit the most powerful of them all. So enjoy the suck greenies. Your devotion to the wimpy energy production of wind/solar as compared to nuclear is laughable.

There is a place for electrical power and there is a place for fossil based fuels working together as the majority energy providers. And there is a place for wind/solar which is in remote areas of the planet. Touting wind/solar as the primary energy source for any population center of any significant size is foolhardy.

Uranium and thorium are naturally occurring elements, and nuclear fission chain reactions are naturally occurring processes.

Totally agree. “Green energy” as a viable source for any sizable population area is a joke, but as an alternate source for isolated areas or very limited use, it has some merit.
