I did compare countries with heavy industry. And with a lot of nuclear + renewables in their energy mix specifically, that’s the argument. Could have included Spain too.

Why not Poland, Netherlands, or Belgium?

Go right ahead and compare them too. What do they have in common? Still burning a lot of fossils maybe?

Sure, buddy:

Germany has 49% renewable energy, France 20%. Nuclear is not renewable and even worse for the environment than CO2. Germany still needs to burn fossil fuels when it needs to fill in all the time for France’s shut-down reactors.

Failing to keep production domestic and then relying on imports via cargo from other countries is not good for the environment: https://www.worldstopexports.com/report-card-for-trade-surpluses-and-deficits-by-country/

I specified per capita. You don’t like it, you can look at carbon intensity instead. Whatever way you want to spin it, Germany is still doing much worse at decarbonisation than its neighbours using nuclear power.

Nuclear is even worse for the environment than CO2

Wow. Demonstrably false. You’re either mad or you’ve fallen for the decades of fearmongering from the oil megacorps.

Nuclear plants emit only water vapor, waste is contained and isolated. Unlike fossil fuel waste which goes directly into the atmosphere and kills millions of people a year. While being directly responsible for bringing us to the brink of climate catastrophe, putting billions more at risk. You need to get some perspective.

Amazing. “Demonstrably”, huh? So where is it? Considering that you refused all the time to actually back up your claims with citations, unlike me, I refuse to continuing engaging with you. Edit all your posts to include evidence and you can be taken seriously. Until then: Ba-bye.
