Fucking kill me. Even the most ambitious push for abating the death of every fish in the ocean is plagued by anti-nuclear spooks. AOC's bill was unveiled today and it specifically says there will be zero investment in new nuclear because it "isn't renewable". While that is true, its also necessary. The claim that it isn't environmentally friendly because of the waste omits that the alternative, massive amounts of batteries for base renewable power, requires ripping up the global south for hazardous material. It's not much better, and real people are going to be getting cancer and dying from it in real time, they just happen to all be from places like Africa! To contrast, the hazard of nuclear waste is VERY MANAGEABLE if the political will is there to do it.
