No, it is not the people who dont want nucler, it is the oil gas and

Well, we know that, at some point, oil and gas will become scarce and
expensive.

I'm not sure what's in the nuclear objection for "renewables", though.

If you have a nuclear grid there is no point in having any renewable

None of that makes sense to me.

That is not my fault. I said it in as few syllables as I could, that
renewable energy intests are totally threatened by nuclear power, Is
that simple enough for you?

No, it's too simple. Probably simplistic as well.

I don't see how widespread adoption of nukes means the end of wind and solar,
when those two coexist right now with oil/gas/coal generated power.

And it seems to be that the infrastructure for distributing electricity
is the same once it leaves the generating plant.

But obviously my thought on this is not well informed.

As far as we can tell, he's dead.
