What do you think of mainstream opposition to nuclear energy amongst green political groups?

I’m of the opinion that it’s far from a durable solution but shouldn’t be phased out as long as we don’t have a clear and viable plan to implement other renewable energy sources. What’s your take?

    Half of the platform of their oposition was marxists projecting environmental progress as a blight against the working class to oppress the free pillage of the natural resources garenteed to them. I think that influenced the deciaion on coal. Im no expert though.

    Not sure a lack of nuclear power has improved germany. But their renewables are pretty impressive.

    Of course the discussion of nuclear tech is very different thirty years later.
