The fight against the climate and ecological breakdown and the fight to reduce inequality are two sides of the same coin.

Every climate policy that ignores needs to be challenged to break free of .

@ttiurani bit of a conflict there. Western prosperity is powered by fossil fuels. If we do not expand fossil fuels, the rest of the world does not get that prosperity.

Solar and wind power is going to require a LOT of fossil fuels to widely deploy. And lithium mining for batteries is not exactly a humanitarian operation.

The way out of that dilemma is nuclear: IFRs and MSRs. Build a couple of each, see which one works better in the real world, and then go for it. Both can burn up nuclear waste
