Why has the channels started to be less supportive of nuclear energy?

I remember in the earlier videos where the creator Henry Reich would be supportive of nuclear energy. A safe & clean solution to climate change. However, recently it’s not even mentioned. With MinuteEarth only talking about “decentralised renewables”. Like in the recent video where they talk about how rooftop solar panels & wind turbines would be more robust against hurricanes than power plants. Tech innovations should only make nuclear more appealing than before, but they’ve seem to have gone on a diverging path.

The United Kingdom decided just now to get away from fossil fuels by 2035 using nuclear energy. France showed during the seventies how fast you can build nuclear by going from 8%- to around 80% nuclear within around 10 years. France now has one of the cheaper energy prices & greenest in Europe. A stark contrast to Germany which is now closing its nuclear in favour of coal & gas after having investing huge sums into renewables.

Just look up the energy map of Europe & see for yourself.

Improved Ram Pump

hey minute physics i have been watching your stuff for years maybe you could use this in a video

hey this is a bit to digest but watch the videos understand the sciences see me design and then make a decision, it is yet to be tested im not in the postiton with a running stream to see how efficient this system would be.

but the potential of gravity is infinite if you use it right

Is there a way to only browse nebula exclusive

Just got a subscription to nebula and CuriosityStream and I was wondering if there was a way to only browse by nebula exclusive as most of the videos are on YouTube. I really don’t feel like cross checking all of the videos. Also I couldn’t find a nebula subreddit so I came here
