TheUnicornsForever@lemmy.world 1 month agoI mean, can you tell for sure that there will not be any war in France or Germany in the next 70 years? I don’t think it’s likely, and I’m clearly of the opinions that we should apply whatever carbon reduction that is most carbon effective, nuclear included, given the current climate emergency, but considering a nuclear power plant could be targeted by an army or terror group is not that far-fetched.

Let me throw in my two cents.
We have people in the U.S. who shoot up schools.
I, for one, am afraid of what the kind of person who instigates an insurrection could do with a target like a nuclear power plant.

With the safety features built into all nuclear plants, it would have to be a crazed nuclear engineer and the place would have to be abandoned and yet still somehow functioning. This is real life, not the Simpsons.

Ok, I’m with you on most of your points but you are mistaken in thinking Ukraine is a poor country. They are literally the bread basket of eastern Europe. That’s one of the biggest reasons Putin is so intent on taking it.

Bread basket does not mean rich. Look at the gdp numbers per capita, they are shockingly poor.
