I mean im guessing its because it may not be as profitable, or atleast at first, boycotts or directly just capitalism fucking everything up? i legit always imagine aliens seeing us still use coal while having DISCOVERED IN 1932

Humans cant be trusted with nuclear because inevitably someone will try to cost cut it and we get shit like Chernobyl again.

well we already have many nuclear plants and no real danger has occured since chernobyl/mile island (that i know of), you just need heavy goverment regulations

Would be a shame if someone were to be ripping out regulations left and right 🥲
