Again, compared to nuclear, renewables are:

  • Cheaper
  • Lower emissions
  • Faster to provision
  • Less environmentally damaging
  • Not reliant on continuous consumption of fuel
  • Decentralised
  • Much, much safer
  • Much easier to maintain
  • More reliable
  • Much more responsive to changes in energy demands

Name a single good fucking thing nuclear does better than renewables.

omg who are you even talking to? It seems like your copy-pasting responses without reading who you're talking to. You're coming off a little looney which is unfortunate because it makes what your talking about sound looney too.

"I can't argue with your logic so I'll just call you crazy instead", that's an absolute classic, good choice

I didn't respond to the wrong person, you're just mad that you're losing an argument because your position is wrong.
