Energy increase for the welfare of the people in this nation. Getting more people out of poverty and off fossil.

For those semi-enviromentalists*, that still exclude nuclear. Change your mindset.
I often see people claim that because clean energy sources like solar, wind, or nuclear are manufactured using fossil fuels their emissions are high. But thats absolutely not the case: even accounting for full lifecycle emissions they are vastly better than burning coal or gas:

My comments: This puts first-of-a-kind new nuclear as CHEAPER than offshore wind in one of the best areas for offshore wind in the world: the North Sea. The Dutch government is currently preparing a tender where itβll offer up to β¬114 per MWh (indexed to 2025) for IJmuiden Ver Gamma-B, a plot [β¦]
Terrapower - Bechtel. How it was brought by anti-nuclear was as if the project was given up and dead. It's a bump, finding a new contractor for remaining work. Much has been done and will, terrapower keeps to there schedule. www.world-nuclear-news.org/articles/bec...

Huge. Taiwan reverses course on its phaseout of nuclear energy! It was a suicidal policy in the first place. This would immediately reduce LNG imports when it restarts. These reactors can last over 100 years if they receive proper care. Probably even longer. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
You often see reactions change among enviromentalist*, are they blind, misguided, just contra. Atleast it doesn't help the global goal of achieving netzero fully. And as close as possible towards it by 2050.
Blabla This is a fallacy argument. We need to get to netzero globally. First you ask about permanent storage, if the answer doesn't agree you move goalpost. The arguments are not to achieve netzero globally, but only try to achieve or fail a certain way and avoid using nuclear energy.
