@danbrotherston I do not favor coal, as a matter of fact I was part of the Lützerath protests.
Most of France's nuclear power plants are fueled through Mali's Uranium. The rest was imported from Russia. You usually make yourself dependent on other states and imports.
When it comes to Lithium or Silicon, among other rare metals necessary for building solar and wind, they, too, are "imported" and often have horrific working conditions down the supply chain, you are right.
I am still against nuclear because its cost compared to wind and solar is just way too high.

Shutting down all it's nuclear plants and replacing them with coal was the direct result of green advocacy in Germany.
If they'd fought coal instead, the world would be a better place.
Even if we leave history aside, I support wind and solar they are what I see as the future, but I would never waste my time opposing nuclear, even new investments in it. I could be wrong, and ultimately investing in nuclear is a pro-climate policy regardless of whether it is the BEST policy or not. The people who burn coal, oil, and natural gas are the real enemies, and every time I see a thread like this, I feel my time and efforts are being wasted.
