It centralizes control, power and money.

So to make nuclear sound better it's compared against the most polluting source?

I can't say I've seen much push for more coal power plants.

The fact the nobody on any side likes to bring up (and most aren't aware of tbh) is that using large amounts of energy that isn't part of the natural cycle of the planet (i.e. current solar energy), whether that's fossil energy (solar energy the the past), nuclear fission or fusion, it means the population of our species can grow beyond the carrying capacity (and I'm not speaking of simply making enough food, there are many other limits) and puts us into a race condition where we have to figure out how to colonize space before destroying the planet.

Anyone watch the 3 Mile Island documentary on Netflix? Indeed, Holy Shit! That was close, the cleanup was just as bad, and all for profit. The natural gas lobby killed the coal mining industry.
