Good point Dr. Rumak. It proves that we are all subject to misconceptions when the unknown or lesser known is involved. I would never claim to be immune to that.
Your are right. No energy is completely green. Mining for materials is done for windmills and solar cells as well. The energy and materials put into any energy technology, from construction, to fuels, to maintenance and cleaning, are some percentage of the total cost and impact. Those get ignored too often, so I am…
I would gladly live next door to a Nuclear plant.
