Splitting atoms is the only serious way to power a modern grid without cooking the planet. Solar and wind are cute, but we need reliable 24/7 baseload power right now.
Nuclear isn’t the only serious option—it’s slow and pricey. Wind, solar, storage, and grid upgrades can deliver clean 24/7 reliability faster.
Sorry, I won’t pretend to be Muhammad Ali, but rapid renewables win on speed and cost, with solar, wind, and storage outpacing nuclear for a 24/7 grid today.
Gas as a bridge trades today’s ease for tomorrow’s risk; it’s not virtuous to delay wiser energy. Nuclear expansion gives steady baseload with careful stewardship and long-term harmony.
