Please refrain from putting these 2 in the same bucket. Fracking does lots of localized and non-local pollution. Nuclear is contained and way safer for humans.

One could argue it is nominally safe.

> Nuclear is contained

Except when it de-contains itself.

I would put all the “nuke is safe” ppl in an island alongside the reactor and go back every 100 years to check if they went Atlantis or not yet…

I get that it’s a a form of clean energy and we kind of need that in the EU but a remote, “protected”, isolated location would be my first choice.

Sure? With the continual modern improvements and safety engineering and education, I'll live right at the nuke if you'd like.

Every plant doesn't operate in a silo (well, it does in a physical sense), the operating knowledge and expertise is shared far and wide to help keep another Three Mile Island or another Fukushima from happening. I enjoy watching the training in action from the control room simulators.[1]

Just let me hunker down in the FLEX shelter when the time comes.
