A few reasons why people might be pushing against nuclear:

  - high electricity generation costs
  - "I don't want to live next to a nuclear plant"
  - If Japan can't handle it securely, why do we think we can?
  - Unsolved long-term waste storage location
  - Cost for long-term storage must additionally covered by the society
  - We are producing radioactive waste that must be securely stored for thousands of years to feed the energy needs of a couple generations, even though there are more sustainable and cheaper alternatives

-nuclear is realiable and cheap after built -living next to nuclear vs next to coal plant/hydro dam isn't that bad -japan wasn't able to handle one plant, and almost none were killed(most deaths were from tsunami -Long term is solved: Sweden is building a special storage place. Combine with vitrification(solidification of waste) it's going to be ok -cost is still negligible compared to cost/problems we have now bc of pollution -France can reprocess 95% of nuclear fuel, actually 17% of their el energy is from reprocessed nuclear, the rest 5% should be stored for ~300 yrs to handle most dangerous radiation. Combined with vitrification, you get a safe way to store a solid form waste in a single controllable place instead of spreading it in the air(fossils) So yeah, most of the fears are driven by fossil propaganda

Those are mainly fake.

Some of them are emotional, sure. But what is fake about them?

" - If Japan can't handle it securely, why do we think we can?"

What does that even mean? There are no large earthquakes, let alone any tsunamis in Germany. And even if there were, most nuclear plants were not at the sea.
