A shut down nuclear power plant is a problem though. Especially when you consider that many people here advocate for a massive increase in the number of nuclear power plants. A river going dry, a shore line that moves, future wars or pandemics that we can't even foresee now. All these are huge risks for nuclear energy. For really no reason since there are renewable energy sources that do not share these risks.

The overhype of nuclear power seems completely surreal to me.
