    You said renewables are 40%, which is wrong. Then you sourced articles showing that carbon free sources are 40%, which includes nuclear. Nobody calls nuclear “renewable”, so I suggest getting your language straight so as not to confuse.

      to be fair nuclear nuclear is much much better than keeping up with all that fossil fuel burning.

      in fact id rather see (properly maintained!!!) nuclear than waiting until actual renewables can cover all of the world’s demand.

        We’ve moved from 17% to 40% of total energy production coming from renewables since 2020

        This what you said. You’re comparing a 2020 number without nuclear to a 2022 number with nuclear. That’s dumb and misleading. That doesn’t make me a douche, it makes you wrong and petty. Grow up and just try to get your numbers and facts straight.
