YES

Is nuclear perfect? No one who knows anything is saying "yes" but that isn't the point. A fully renewable grid would be awesome, I think we can all agree. There are even some pretty compelling plans to make that happen, but they all rely on theoretical technologies that don't exist being implemented at crazy scales and I think that's an unwise bet.

Nuclear, in contrast, is a mature technology that we have TODAY. RIGHT NOW. We know how it works, we know it solves our short term crisis, and there nothing stopping us from building reactors except our own fear.
