Nuclear was a great option 20 years ago. Today though it's too late. The cost and time to generation (especially in the west) is too high, you'll get far better returns far more quickly from renewables and storage

We need to do what we can right now to avoid people saying this exact same thing 20 years from now.

The oilcorp-funded thinktanks don't like this answer, though.

That renewable and storage is more bang for buck?

20 years ago renewable+storage was orders of magntiude more than nuclear. Today it's not.
