Nuclear is pointlessly expensive. Solar/offshore wind.
We have a fucking fusion reactor in the sky, come on.

Fission reactors would have had a great positive impact on climate change. The anti nuke crowd bears some responsibility for the climate problems we now face.
Small fusion reactors will be developed that can safely power heavy equipment, trains, trucks and possible aircraft. Larger fusion reactors will provide clean, reliable power for cities. Wind and solar are a good stepping stone to this future. Lead, follow or get out of the way.

Indeed, but they were plagued with problems…were expensive as fuck to build, and take for fuckin ever.
