Comment on A cow is more likely to kill you than a shark

that’s not the question here. Why are you throwing unrelated things in with hydro?

Ah yes the unrelated renewable source that doesn’t make up 2/3 of all renewables production. Image ourworldindata.org/renewable-energy

your post wasn’t about percentage of generation, it was about quantity of deaths

Here it is ladies and Gents the magic commenter will now read my mind and tell you what I the OP intended when I the same OP made the post. It definitely wasn’t to point out how uninformed people like skullgrid@lemmy.world pretend nuclear will kill them and their families instantly and ruin the planet for all time because they were raised on and force fed anti nuclear propaganda. It definitely was not to point out that humans are terrible at assessing danger and risks on a large scale. I’m sure you are one of the people who thinks its safer to drive coast to coast than fly.
