@TheAtlantic Here's China's electricity production since 1986. How do you decarbonize this surging output without a massively productive power source like nuclear? https://t.co/raIBbjlfMs https://t.co/P8ekSOAgX4 — PolitiTweet.org

@TheAtlantic China generates 65% of its electricity by burning coal. India's electricity comes 73% from coal. And those are moving targets as electrical output rises. There's no way renewables can come online fast enough to catch up. Only nuclear can do that. — PolitiTweet.org

@TheAtlantic And if/when humanity has to undertake the truly immense task of sucking excess CO2 back *out* of the atmosphere, to compress and store it underground - how can that job possibly be done without the immense electrical output from nuclear power? — PolitiTweet.org
