Nuclear power bad

I am concerned that the nuclear power industry will compete for monies that would best go to wind and solar. Nuclear energy is not cheap, safe or clean, and we still don’t know how to safely dispose of its dangerous and long-lasting poisons. Also, it is connected to bombs, so proliferation is a problem.

In addition, if the power goes down long-term, there could be loss of coolants, and meltdown could render large areas unlivable. Now, in Ukraine, we see Russians using a large plant as a shield that cannot be safely fired upon.

We should switch to non-nuclear energy now.
