Why don't you show results of dam failures, result of ore mining needed for wind turbines or hungry people when land is occupied by solar panels? Not speaking how dirty and environment disastrous is mining and processing of rare metals needed for both, wind turbines and solar panels.
You are so ignorant I think this video should be taken down, ohh and FYI nuclear plants can't explode... and they dont release radiation... hopefully you failed
You neglect to to mention the fact that the children in this video are descendants probably of the Chernobyl incident where a vast amount of radiation leaked into the area. It takes quite a lot of radiation, or a long time of exposure to cause these harmful effects. For the asian man, it's possible he was around the hiroshima/nagasaki area during WW2, again, getting a vast amount of radiation exposure. Nuclear energy doesn't leak that sort of radiation into the environment.
Nuclear has large start up costs but also small expenses and huge profits once completed otherwise they wouldn't get investors and France, being 80% nuclear has the cheapest electricity in Europe and also decreased its air pollution five fold with the lowest green house gas emissions. It's like the old saying goes "if you're not a rebel by the age of 20, you got no heart, but if you haven't turned establishment by 30, you've got no brains".
Annual waste from one reactor will fit into a pickup truck and the fuel from 50 years of reactor operation will fit in a football field amounting to 77,000 tons. We discard 179,000 tons of batteries a year & they contain toxic heavy metals. There are not only massive subsidies for solar & wind but these have been mandated into law by Germany,Denmark &USA. Electricity co’s don’t use them because they’re reliable and efficient, but because of government legislation.
Wind farms require 60,000 acres per 1.2GW when a conventional plant only requires 200 acres, that’s 300 times more space. There's protests in Germany cos they're clearing part of the black forest for a wind farm. When solar panels expire after the average 25 years they must be disposed of in toxic dumps as they contain highly toxic metals, gases & solvents that are carcinogenic. Some of these toxic substances in solar panels will never decay, never ending life span.
The picture of the house next door to the house is stupid. In any case better than being next to a coal plant. Another perspective is that the amount of waste produced by nuclear power is 2 pounds for each person (fits into a coke can) compared to 68 tonnes of coal put into the atmosphere per person. Coal fired plants expose the population to around 200 times more radioactive by-products than nuclear power plants do in their entire life cycle.

If you are against nuclear power, you do not know anything about nuclear power.
