    Sweden has uranium reserves and produced it’s own uranium in the 60-s. Though I think laws currently prevent mining.

      I’m sure they’ll take just as much care for indigenous reindeer herders when choosing where to poison thousands of km^2 of land as they did when using them for hostage shield politics to sabotage the wind rollout.

      Or is an entire country supposed to run indefinitely on the single year worth of reserves already known?

        Anti nuclear sentiment is pro-fossil fuel. You’re inventing problems and prolonging dependance on oil.

          Cancelling low carbon energy and making vague promises of spending 10x as much is definitely not a pro fossil fuel move /s

            A low carbon energy source is useless if it cannot cover peak loads, which are now being covered by fossil fuels. Years of greenie obstructionism now means that the nuclear plants that would have been built are now missing, and the solutions offered by the anti-nuclear lobby seems to be “let them have energy poverty, brownouts and outright blackouts are not our problem”. This will happen once coal and oil plants shut down, renewables alone cannot cover the demands, especially at peak load.
