Nuclear power is the most apocalyptically dangerous non-solution to the climate crisis we could imagine. One nuclear accident could take out most of a continent. Germany knows this, and that’s why they’re winding it down together with fossil fuels.
Trump’s death-dealing climate agenda was on view last night, as he lied and said that Germany was abandoning its commitment to renewable energy.
Germany talked back. “Like it or not: Germany’s energy system is fully operational, with more than 50% renewables. And we are shutting down – not building – coal & nuclear plants. Coal will be off the grid by 2038 at the latest. PS: We also don’t eat cats and dogs.”
