>I remember reading something about a conspiracy that the KGB funded the "Green" movementsduring the cold war to push back against nuclear, because the Soviets realised the potential of nuclear and wanted the West-bloc to fall behind
makes sense, and it would have been smart strategy, and it worked
but i suspect we would have dropped nuclear energy regardless because we drop anything that is efficient and works well in favor of less efficient methods that force higher costs onto consumers at every turn
for example, the US used to have the world's best passenger train network and now our cities are huge parking lots for people who live in suburbs which are car based communities and it makes everyone's lives more expensive and less efficient
