Pretty much everything OP said is backed up by mountains of evidence, especially in the case of France. Looking it up is trivial. Without proving anything to the contrary, your own comment is lazy and useless to this conversation.
And yet, here you are, being precisely what you accuse me of being. Lazy and useless.
“Pretty much”, “Mountains of evidence”, yet none presented by them or you.

Nuclear power is a MUST if we want to advance as a race in a “short” period of time. We need alot of energy to be able to have what we all want. Warmth, food, a life… hell even the internet. As long as people take it seriously, nuclear power is very very safe, and efficient.It doesn’t mean it is the only form of energy we need to adopt. But we do need it. Unless you think coal, oil or gas is the way to go… And no. Solar and wind won’t cut it all-round.
That is an opinion, mostly my own. It is based on many hours of reading articles and watching videos. I didnt study formally for anything to back up that opinion. However maybe read something like this to help you understand some stuff.
I was merely pointing out the fact that your no-effort comment above contributed absolutely nothing to the conversation.
That said, I’m not against nuclear power per se. However, given the fact that we need to cut down on CO2 asap, while at the same time there is a clear lack of available resources to build/research/develop every possible tech at the same time, I find it quite delusional to still push for nuclear when we can use those resources to expand on wind/solar even more aggressively.
In the case of France, the corporation running nuclear power is almost 70 BILLION Euros in debt, while expecting costs upward of additional 50 BILLION Euros for 6 more reactors…numbers that you know will skyrocket once construction begins. That nuclear plant that will be finished next year will produce the most expensive kwh in Frances history. Great outlook! Much convince.

Good luck, and be better please.
