    I guess the time is now to start building nuclear so that it is running in a decade.

      only thing I really worry about with nuclear is the need for water, if we can handle that part with waste or salt water then I’m all for trying it

        Interesting, I didn’t know about the water use. Apparently most use sea water.

      No, no ,no!!! Nuclear is bad mmmmkay? I would like to present you with a link to a video where we use carbon tax to. And then support greener energies and green tech to make the earth a cleaner. We need to accept that we damged the earth and the more we put towards carbon tax will. The video will consist of apologies, thoughts and prayers, including reconciliation, and the pathway to the future. Please find the link here:

        Haha good one. But actually, more nuclear power plants need to be built soon.

            Those look promising. It’s tough to dig through all their actions. Since 2018, have any actually been built yet?

              Wow I’m late to respond to you. To my knowledge no, but there have been more announcements recently about plans being put into motion.

              Related, Bruce Power is getting new reactors but afaik they’re not SMRs.
