I know this is satire, but having a few years of farewell-themed Arctic cruises is a legit fantastic idea. (The Antarctic has a more complicated response to climate change and we can save it for later)https://www.theonion.com/norwegian-cruise-line-introduces-now-or-never-tour-of-1847082526 …

Nuclear energy is a dumb way to approach dealing with climate change given the last nuclear plant that was started in America was started in 2007, and still isn't producing power. And it gets even dumber when you realize that solar and wind are considerably cheaper per KWH.

They also have the advantage that it takes less than 6 months to deploy either. 6 months is many months fewer than 168. Nuclear made a lot of sense in the 90's, some sense in the aughts, and essentially none today.

The usual response I expect to see here is, “Elon said that solar is the only way…nuclear is for morons” Mixed energy grid for the win.

The Fukushima leak means all the fish & sea life in the Pacific Ocean are poisoned. Nuclear is not the way.
