Great question. This might actually play a role here. Nuclear energy has the lowest land impact of any energy source. They better involve the local population in this though.
This is hopeful, and we need more nuclear, but I have very serious questions about the methodology to this survey.
The prior marks on the line graph indicate not all categories of response are represented, as the don’t add up to 100%. Then there is a sudden change over the last 4 years where the % supporting jumps to the mid 70s and all four periods add up to exactly 100%.
This, to me, feels like a question change on or around 2021, or a methodology change that’s not clearly labeled, and casts doubt on the integrity of the research, especially given the generally modest level of knowledge about nuclear, which, according to my read of the article and survey details, doesn’t appear to have changed at any point.
@Emil Good step. In line with Engie's news they're also moving away from Russian supply chains. By the end of the decade the EU isn't relying on Russia at all anymore.
@Emil Currently 57% of all uranium globally is retrieved using ISL. This will further raise the number, further decreasing the footprint of uranium mining.
