Re: Deaths are not the only metric
You've never lived near a coal mine have you? Do you not know about the millions of toxic spoil heaps around the globe caused by coal mines, and mines for rare earth metals used in many renewable generators? Yet again, it's convenient for you to ignore them because each one may be small. Add them up and guess what?
To put your favourite statistic in context, the sum total of all nuclear disasters in human history (including Chernobyl, which is not in the slightest way representative of modern Western nuclear technology) amounts to restrictions on 0.00050% of the earth's surface. Zero point zero, zero, zero five percent. There are also exclusion zones around many wind farms, solar farms and other technologies that have to be spread across our countryside. I guess they don't count for some reason?
As an side, anyone needing to call themselves the Voice of Truth is trying too hard.
