I am also for nuclear. It’s just a giant steam power plant with radio active rods.
I’m thinking about the Ohio River being polluted with radioactivity as a worst case scenario.
Yes we’d certainly need proper oversight and responsible disposal of radioactive materials. It’s true, that can be problematic but I think the problems from that are smaller and easier to solve than the problems from fracking/oil well drilling/coal mining etc destructive practices for fuel.
I’m sure there’s been a lot of debate about it over the years.

No. Way more destructive. Fracking for oil and drilling can make a site uninhabitable for like 5 years and it can be cleaned effectively in a minimum of like a month.
Nuclear Damage can last from 112 years to up to 20,000 years. You can decontaminate an area effectively on 2 to 7 years but the waste water of dumped wouldn’t be good for anything.
Some colleges have micro nuclear power plants so it’s not like they’re not used.
Its a gamble that needs a lot of competence to make it future proof.

But yeah nuclear power is pretty cool tech.
