Anyone who argue against nuclear while failing to acknowledge the issues of solar and wind, which are 10 times more problematic, can't be truthful.

Unless we enter a _major_ era of degrowth there is no way we'll get out of fossil fuels without nuclear.

What are the 10x more problematic issues with solar and wind?
Briefly: solar and wind energy requires sun or wind and tons of space relative to fossil/nuclear. Not every place has those.
