Were they good reasons or did they just fell victim to their feelings? Not creating nuclear power plants because you're afraid of some bombs is good reasoning?

Were they good reasons or did they just fell victim to their feelings?
Not creating nuclear power plants because you're afraid of some bombs is good reasoning?
What about the millions of deaths to fossil fuels every year? Are they better than the nuclear accidents we had?
I don't think good reasoning is why they felt that nuclear power was bad.
- SonOfKyuss 10mo agoHow about understandable reasons then?
- 7bit 10mo agoIt is. And also because of Chernobyl and Fukushima. But you don't care do you
- mr_toad 10mo agoWe’re going to look back and realise that the destruction wrought by global warming was far worse in every way than at Chernobyl.
- Forgeties79 10mo agoI don’t know if you quite realize how close to a major climate change event Chernobyl almost became.
- ericd 10mo agoYou might want to elaborate?
- fragmede 10mo agoThat's not supported by physics. Even at the worst - if the other reactor had somehow also melted down, that still wouldn't have caused a major climate change event. It would have been absolutely terrible, regionally, but not globally. Nuclear reactors aren't atomic bombs.
- Forgeties79 10mo agoI don’t understand. Plenty of climate change related developments are regional. See: the increasingly devastating hurricanes forming in the Gulf of Mexico. Not every single thing that we attribute to climate change has to span the entire globe.
