Either global warming is a serious catastrophe or it isn't.

If it isn't, this is all moot and we should burn cheap, clean, abundant natural gas.

If it is, surely it isn't a problem to shell out more money to get green baseload generations from nuclear? We need to meet base demand around the clock, and nuclear is the least harmful way to do it.






Or we invest our money in the technology with the largest bang for the buck: renewables.

Then follow the research to handle the resiliency, still at vastly lower costs than anything nuclear.
