The article with more details is worth a read too: https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamesconca/2012/06/10/energys-deathprint-a-price-always-paid/ … TL;DR China's lack of regulation skews global averages of some categories a lot, but no matter how you look at it nuclear still wins. Coal deaths in the US = three 9/11s *every year*. Think about that.
