The metaphor in hockey applies: "Skate to where the puck is going..." In 2025, huge progress was made in sustainable energy as the leading supplier worldwide, using wind, solar, batteries, geothermal to name a few. Let's catch up to innovations of the 21st century. Let's not invest in a stranded asset.  

Clean energy is cheaper to build than nuclear. 

Clean energy is faster to assemble and operationalize than nuclear.

Clean energy provides dual-income streams for farmers, building owners and landowners and better land use than nuclear.

Clean energy reduces reliance on disruptive mining and foreign suppliers for raw materials.

Clean energy does not require water consumption or disruption of waterways.

Clean energy is safer than nuclear.  

Nuclear energy provides only short-term employment but long-term waste and risk.

Nuclear is a legacy problem, not a solution.
