The problem with nuclear safety risks is that there is no fix. Once it happens it's game over. Nuclear fallout is devastating.

Anyhow, there are much more efficient, safe, economical reactors designed. Reason why nobody invests in them is not so much because of greens as much as it is about corporations who cannot milk the state using that technology. If they would somehow be able to make nuclear plants in a way that state would need to supply gazillions to corporations annually, trust me, there would be reactors everywhere

However, Europe definitely leads the world when it comes to nuclear power share in electricity production
