In the decades that people have been screaming about nuclear plants "taking too long to build" stalling progress, we could have built many nuclear plants and significantly reduced emissions.

We've kicked the can down the road for far too long. We are well past the point of preventing the devastating impacts of climate change we were warned about 20+ years ago.

If this institute is so convinced wind and solar are the answer, I hope they also have vast amounts of lithium pre-mined or a novel approach to energy storage that isn't so damaging.

I'm picking up on a strong bias by the articles used for citations. There's not much wiggle room to not arrive to this conclusion like they were cherry picked. Most references are anti-nuclear in some way or another.

We closed down a 2.2GW plant. How much would that cost in solar? My google-fu says around $2 billion and a loooooot of land.

Bullshit
