So you think caring about nuclear waste along with CO2 emissions makes someone a fake environmentalist? Nuclear waste is highly toxic and difficult to store and transport safely.
Also, have you ever heard of Chernobyl or Fukushima? Nuclear reactors are great in certain ways, but can be catastrophically bad too.
Hydro also can cause a significant environmental impact, flooding natural habitat and interrupting water routes for different animals.
Solar and wind aren’t perfect either, but the idea is to try to chose a power source that is as clean as possible.
