It’s me, I’m the nuclear lobby.

Nuclear is the achievable & practical interim solution to power an industrial society until renewables become practical / scale up to meet demand.

Small modular reactors can even be dropped into existing coal plants and recycle their steam turbine hardware.

Frankly I don’t care if renewables are better in the long term, because there won’t be one if we don’t kill coal plants entirely very soon.
