China’s also building a lot of nuclear plants and what they claim will be the biggest nuclear plant in the world.
Not that it negates building coal plants, but it’s not a simple issue. They’re growing faster than the energy industry can keep up with.
And like others have said, the rest of the world is at fault too. Germany shut down all of its nuclear plants, which forced them to go heavy into coal. And not just any coal, but lignite which is considered the dirtiest of all types of coal.
That’s a weird way of spelling wind and solar

Looks like coal has increased from 2021 to 2022 as nuclear decreased.
Nothing else happened at all in 2022 that could explain this, and it is definitely the trend. /s
How fucking stupid do you think people are?
It was your source man. Don’t get mad at me that it shows the opposite of what you claimed.
Germany in particular pisses me off so much. No country bought into the fear mongering about nuclear energy after Fukushima as much as Germany did. Shutting down nuclear power plants in the face of climate change is so incredibly irresponsible. For all of their faults, I give a lot of credit to the US and France for not shying away from using nuclear energy.
