Then you have been misled. The oil and gas industries have a long history of spreading misinformation and creating doubt in order to prolong their profits.

Nuclear helps them do that because it prevents funding from going towards renewables. Anything that does that is not helping.

Nuclear could be useful in future but we need renewables NOW. Any and all funding and resources that can be used to accelerate renewable energy generation, must be directed that way. Otherwise it is detrimental, to renewables, to the environment and ultimately to all of us.

We need renewable energy now. Don't accept delays, fight for the right of humanity to have a future.
