@ctimmerman17@KomputerKoder@desertedpix Exactly. Nuclear power is both safe and green until that very rare incident whereas coal is neither safe or green at ANY point. More people die from black lung each year than all direct nuclear energy deaths ever worldwide!

@NomadicBackpac1@BackpackerItaly I was there in December and the night curfew was no driving after 10pm on weekdays and 9pm on weekends.

A must read!
