    Following the discussion in the other comments, I did some research.

    People usually cite this, which cites this which cites this, which cites this.

    You can see there that plant construction and decommissioning are both counted, and that the comparison for nuclear versus renewables is very good.

      Nuclear is dangerous. There is no getting around this. It’s dangerous in many more ways than coal or oil, it’s more dangerous than anything. It is a constant, ongoing natural disaster. No one who calls themselves an environmentalist could possibly downplay the catastrophe that is nuclear.

        In what sense is it more dangerous than coal, if not in terms of human or animal deaths, or environmental damage? It’s more dangerous by what measure?
