What? Do you live in the 1950s? Have you heard of nuclear accidents? How many people did wind and solar energy kill so far?

If you want the answer, here's the data. Solar is slightly safer than Nuclear, Nuclear is slightly safer than Wind. The three are WAY safer than fossil fuels.

this is ridiculous. when a windmill cumples or a solar panel gets hit by hail, they don't poison the region.
Pripyat and Fukushima don't happen with windmills and solar cells.
Such a patently stupid argument.
Not just plants, wolfs and other animals are quite frequent there also and from studies they have less than 2% birth defects...
That just shows us, that how huge is the nuclear scare propaganda...
lolol
lol, does this look poisoned to you?
Yeah it looks bombed-out as fuck to anything more complicated than plant-life. I'm not saying we shouldn't be pursuing nuclear energy, just that this argument feels very poorly constructed and intentionally misleading.

Yeah I think we both agree that nuclear is worth pursuing, it's not 100% safe but nothing is; even windmills catch fire or spin apart. It's far safer than fossil fuels.
