    The data is widely available and easy to find.

    It’s the difference between spending 0 seconds looking it up and wanting “a source”, versus actually looking it up and not finding anything, then asking where the info comes from.

    Asking for a source just to ask for a source is called sealioning.

        Here are the claims he made:

        We could have had an unrivaled nuclear power infrastructure but those NIMBY assholes stopped it 50 years ago

        now we rely on extending existing plants past their lifetimes

        Running in fucking circles about how to save the planet.

        Has anyone who wants to “go green” without nuclear ever looked at the power output of these things?? It’s not even the same league

        So which part do you know to be false, that you couldn’t easily look up and had to ask him where he got this obscure info? Which part do you want him to source? All of it? Even the part where we are running in circles fixing climate change? Or is it the part where current plants are being showered in money to make up for extended lifetimes?

        Right, you were just sealioning.
