Maybe? There are apparently ~430 active reactors worldwide today but the number has been practically constant since the 90s. https://www.statista.com/statistics/263945/number-of-nuclear...

Likely more to do with the massive expense of building them than any movement though.

If I recall Germany's anti nuclear movement is very successful and got a few shut down after Fukushima and in recent history.
