I guess it just seemed like you were arguing in a black and white way. The great advantage of renewables is the rapid pace of development and fast deployment time, but if you already have nuclear it seems to make sense to continue to support it.

It makes less sense in Australia for instance given the huge amount of investment we'd have to make to get started and the huge time it would take to get plants online. Better to invest in figuring out better storage for renewables.

Nuclear leads to much pain decades down the line in terms of plant decommissioning and waste management. I’d definitely take that over the climate crisis, but it would need a huge government push to fund. And if we were going to do it, we should have started 15 years ago.
