This is a graph showing official number of deaths in Germany for every day since 2020. The red line is for 2026 and the big spike is the recent heatwave. The three days with the most deaths since at least 2020 have all happened just two weeks ago.
These are the kinds of events that are going to wake people up to the reality. Climate change isn't going away. It's still such a shame that Germany got rid of its nuclear power.
This might not be the great solution to this anymore, if you cannot cool them sufficiently under heat. Which is kind of the trademark of climate change and its during heatwaves where you need energy cool down actively.
bruh nuclear isnt economic, considering all costs its hurting they economy. There was never a single nuclear power plant that was profitable over its whole life cycle. Its a massive burden for the tax payer and that money would be way better spend into renewable energy sources....u know...they kind where you dont need to keep the trash far away from humans for the next million years.
I am sick of tired of people sugesting nuclear in the context of climate change. Germany dosent even have own sources of uran ore (non that are usefull at least) so the fuel has to get importef from fucking russia or from australia where the mining fucks over nature and humans that life near by from the dust.
There is NOTHING moral about nuclear power (besides for space probes) so stop framing it as a solution for climate change.
