Germany's power producers are preparing for their first winter without nuclear power, after the country closed its last remaining reactors in early 2023 amid ongoing efforts to modernize its energy system.
Because it affects many of us on such a personal level. Middle-class households in Sweden are struggling financially, much because of the energy prices.
The environmental changes caused by burning fossile fuel are being felt, now more than ever before.
And it fucking stings the eyes when you hear uneducated fools talk about how bad nuclear power is when it really would help us eleviate both these issues.
Also, the nuclear plants shut down recently were a tiny percentage of our energy mix. It is not like we were France with 80% nuclear and decided to shut it down within a year or two.
The problem isn't that we shutdown our nuclear power, the problem is that despite the government knowing it for decades, they didnt plan for a proper, renewable substitute.
The current government has to pick up the slack from the Merkel government (and as a thank you declines in polls).
Sadly, nuclear power isnt something you can just switch on or off.
Nah you just all fell for the same altright idiots like us germans.
You wont struggle. And even then, why are you blaming germany and not your own fucking politicians. Grow up.
