And yet even including Chernobyl nuclear is far safer than oil and gas per kw

Sure. In the same way that flying is far safer than driving. There are massive amounts of safeguards in place to keep it as safe as possible. The problem is that when something goes wrong, it goes very, very wrong. This is why some people fear flying and nuclear power.

Way more people will die from climate change because we were forced to rely on oil instead of building out nuclear.

Its not when something goes wrong, its if. And it still is much safer and a lot better for the environment than oil

		I mean every single major nuclear plant accident is from reactors built in the 1960s. I think we are simply better at building them and it is no longer a question of “when”
