        @BernardKeane @glynmoody such bollocks. Coal oil & gas waste poisons air, water and soil. Nuclear complements solar/wind for baseload.

        @kevinmarks @BernardKeane but the issue was renewables vs nuclear, not fossil fuels vs nuclear...

        @glynmoody @BernardKeane which is a false dichotomy. Fossil is the problem, nuclear, solar, hydro and wind are solutions. Batteries help.

        @kevinmarks @glynmoody @BernardKeane agree, but to be fair, nuclear and hydro both have a fair share of environmental issues as well.

        @rasmusvuori @glynmoody @BernardKeane compared to oil/gas/coal they are tiny. Coal waste is more radioactive http://epeus.blogspot.com/2002/04/ban-hazardous-coal-power-now-us.html …
