Hate how the editorial line is to deny how dirty nuclear power is, using instead the nuclear lobby's catchphrases, 'clean energy', 'carbon free'. Also how PBS uses "nuclear renaissance" instead of #nuclearrelapse
Passes over "molten salt" as a coolant for the nuclear reactor, as if it were normal.

Coalition Grows Against Hochul’s Nuclear Plan More than 100 organizations rally to oppose Hochul nuclear plan.

As to “small modular reactors” --one kind of nuclear power plant being hawked-- the acronym SMR really means “spending money recklessly”. With "more concentrated fission products and activation products" SMRs get very radioactive, very risky.

The SMR boom will soon go bust The hype bubble will burst by 2030 or sooner

2026 predicted to be year #SMRbubble bursts

Modular nukes wind up 300% to 500% over budget, take 3x longer to build than forecast (12 years on avg), and produce more than 5x the #nuclearwaste per kilowatt
