    I don’t understand why they don’t use nuclear. We need to resist this.

      Americans are very wary of nuclear anything, because we know that our government will allow sociopathic corporations to cut corners until it fails, and spews it’s poison over a quarter of the nation. And they’ll just dump the nuclear waste in our lakes and rivers.

      And if they get caught, they’ll pay a fat fine to the government, but nothing substantial will change.

      It works in Europe where the governments care about their citizens, and can be trusted to protect them for the most part. Here in America, our government despises us.

        You’re right. Besides, there’s sun in Texas, they could use solar, but that’s woke or whatever.

      I think in the U.S. the nuclear permitting process is so much longer than the methane generator permitting process, and they don’t want to wait.
