Does Nuclear count as Green Energy? I feel like it should, since it doesn't really pollute and lasts a lot.

Bro. Nuclear fission isn't green and its shit in so many other ways as well, most importantly, its not economic without massive government fundings.

Fossile is pushing for nuclear because they fear actually green energy. Wich is way faster to expand than nuclear btw.

If you repeat it enough time it will become true...

If we had gone full nuclear and full electric in the 90s (like we could have) we would not have a climate crisis right now (and the Iraq war, and petro-monarchies with an abusive amount of power). Nuclear has its problem, but CO2 is not one of them and the others are much easier to solve.
