"Nuclear power, which many believe will save us, actually went down."
Whose fault is that? Yep—the idealistic anti-nuclear greenies who think that 24/7 ~92% CoE nuclear power is "too expensive" and would rather overbuild wind and solar but have neither the (a) control of when the wind blows or sun shines or (b) infrastructure to integrate all of that. If the climate crisis were of such human survivability importance that we are being demanded to spend $100+ TRILLION on an entire rework of our energy systems, because CO2 is that big of a boogeyman, then streamline the design, permitting, and production of nuclear powered generators—and all without having to stress about "rejected heat."

Agreed, we need every existing nuke right now. Is this a first?
More like Cannot efficiency, amirite?
that's good.
