[video] Global heating is very real, we’ve gone from dozens to several hundred wildfires a year in Western Europe.

[text] If you're pro nuclear memorise this. The best Nuclear Reactor in the world is the ADVANCED BOILING WATER REACTOR (ABWR), the Japanese build them in 38-MONTHS and they produce 1350 MW POWER each reactor. If you see a local politician harass them about why we aren't building them.
