Still one of the worst mistakes weve ever made is not building more nuclear

Wonder that Finland is so low, wasnt reactor 3 of Olkilouto build with huge backing from the population for a whopping 11 billions and 20 years of construction time ?

it feels too late. everything feels too late. nuclear reactors take *decades* to build. earth is heating up, yet politicians continue the grandstanding for short term gain. soon our ecosystem will no longer be able to support 8 *billion* humans. Build the reactors, don’t build the reactors; it doesnt really matter much anyways

It is always the same. Results depending on who is paying those who are asking the questions. Last year the same question was asked by forsa in Germany on behalf of nuclear sceptical people and only 29 answered yes to the same question. So why are we posting lobby stuff on here?!
I on my behalf do not like it from either side.

There’s a wiki page that lists European reactors and Germany’s section is such a sad sight.

Nuclear energy is too expensive and not green. We don’t need it, we need more renewable energy.

Could we stop writing Europe when we mean EU?

Ayyy, nuclear is def the way of the future. What has happened in the past with Fukushima, Chernobyl, and three mile island was tragic, but we have a better understanding of how this form of energy works and the safety measures behind it are getting better as we progress! It is an incredibly efficient form of energy and we need to heavily invest in it as a form of energy production for our future.

Sweden France and Netherlands have the same number but Sweden is still placed slightly further right.. infuriating, not beautiful, I’ll think about that all day.

lets see how high the support is once Poland starts to build their first reactor …

It’s strange that this doesn’t account for how much energy each country already gets from nuclear plants. For example, France already has a high baseline.

I don’t know if [this](https://old.reddit.com/r/nuclear/wiki/2024/) counts as data, but it gives some context of the “who supports building nuclear reactors” over the last 12 months or so.
