We’re all beginning to see nowadays that nuclear is probably the greenest power source. But the same people that did the Soviet Union’s propaganda work now do it for China.
Still, we’ve come a long way since 1970’s technology.
Smaller but more powerful reactors can be made.
Are dirtbags. I'm a big fan of nuclear power generally. Not a fan of RBMK reactors ...
