And by extension I’m saying that it has no relevance when discussing modern reactors which do not have the problems Fukushima reactor had. Meaning that you’re trying to use a disingenuous argument to make your point.
I don’t agree. I think these accidents should make us aware of the dangers of nuclear power production and that there will always be a risk attached to it. There have been more than 30 nuclear power plant accidents with damage to the environment and the biosphere:

I know you don’t agree. I’ve repeatedly stated that this discussion is pointless because we’re not changing each other’s minds here. It seems like you just want to keep restating what you believe over and over. I don’t know to what end however. As the link I provided in the other reply shows, biosphere is doing just fine after nuclear incidents. If anything, it’s actually doing better in Chernobyl than it did before the accident because humans are now gone from there.
Yes and again: Being against nuclear power production does not mean I’m a fossil fuel proponent. I think we have to get rid of both and achieve 100% renewables which is entirely feasible according to recent studies.

Not a realistic option, especially if you want to have industry. I suppose Germany may just be advocating for NIMBY strategy here though. Perhaps you plan to just deinudstrialize and outsource manufacturing to countries like China so that your energy needs go down enough to make all renewables viable.
So your saying the reactor was not safe and should have never been built that way? I agree.

You do know that the tens of thousands of people who developed cancer in the aftermath of the Chernobyl disaster are part of the biosphere? https://blog.ucsusa.org/lisbeth-gronlund/how-many-cancers-did-chernobyl-really-cause-updated/
Do you know that people develop cancer as a result of pollution from fossil fuels? https://www.targetedonc.com/view/fossil-fuels-present-considerable-cancer-risks

Can you substantiate your claim by offering a source, or is this your personal assessment?
