The PSL is also anti nuclear, but in the "nuclear power is built on exploitation of mines in Africa" kind of way.
Honestly, I saw an article recently that said China is building the equivalent of a nuclear plant every week in renewable energy, so nuclear seems kind of obsolete at this point anyway.
They’re testing thorium molten salt reactors and those seem like a cool advancement in energy generation
I'm not a nuclear scientist, so idk... maybe? But China has the productive forces already developed to implement solar on a massive scale today, and I think that's the example the rest of the world needs to learn from.
China recently opened a thorium test reactor IIRC, hopefully they can make it efficiently scalable and start exporting them with Belt & Road stuff.
china confirmed reddit power source country
also the USA has good places for big solar farms in for example california, no need for nuclear
