My timeline just got bombed by very similar posts from various accounts using the hashtags #Sustainability #innovation all promoting the use of nuclear power for AI and data centers run by the tech giants.
It seems like an #astroturfing #greenwashing campaign right here on Mastodon.
Nuclear energy is not sustainable.
I’ll block any account that seeems to be part of this.
@neverbeaten I’m asking a legitimate question here: Why do you say nuclear energy is not sustainable? It’s far more efficient than solar or wind. I am excited about the recent developments in nuclear fusion which is extremely clean. The only byproducts of fusion are helium and hydrogen.
The problem today is not getting enough power, it is radiating enough of our waste heat back into space so that we don't cook ourselves.
