"Am I a joke to you?" - Nuclear power in Europe.
Nuclear plants need water to cool. This would also make Western Europe drier.
That's just Germany. I don't think the anti-nuclear sentiment is that popular elsewhere. Finland just started a new reactor, granted we began bulding it already back in 2005.
France is still gangster with it. But the rest of Europe pretends that it's greener to buy oil from Russia.
It's not green enough for the ecofascists who'd rather have coal than nuclear, but we still have nuclear.
