Nuclear power provides energy that is largely free of carbon emissions and can play a significant role in helping deal with climate change.
This is a giant hoax of an argument anyway.
Nuclear plants consist mainly of a shitton of concrete (and only the best sort is good enough). The production of that concrete causes a terrible amount of carbon emissions upfront.
But in most industrialized countries, the construction of nuclear plants tends to grossly exceed their budgeted cost and run years over schedule.
LMAO I didn’t know that. So they tried to solve the problem of human stupidity? ;-)
modular nuclear reactors, which can be built in a centralized production facility and then shipped to the site of their installation.
Yea, sure… make it even better by adding an extra lot of carbon emissions for the transportation.
I have to take back my statement from above: they did NOT try to solve stupidity, but rather exploit it.

‘Interesting’ analysis. Now do the same for an equivalent-power thermal power plant, over its lifetime.
But why? Nobody has tried to promote these, or even claimed that they would save emissions…

What does the abbreviation mean? ;-)
Any botanist can explain how they managed to grow a nuclear reactor plant?
