I am interested in hearing your opinions about nuclear power, what you know, if you have any fears, or ideas? Do you know if your country has any nuclear power generation?

Most countries would rely on other countries for the fuel, like european plants rely on russia. Being sovereign for your power generation is very important in my opinion.
That’s a good point. Here’s a list of countries with the largest uranium reserves:

What about thorium tho
Thorium is a byproduct of rare earth element processing, and also exists on its own in ore deposits. My home country of Canada has insane amounts of it in the ground.
Thorium is actually insanely abundant, if we built reactors that used it, thorium would never be the bottleneck. We would need plutonium/uraium though I think the jump start the reaction.
Yea but thats such a litle amound of uranium in compairesen. We will prob find a other way of jumpstarting the reaction if there was more budget in thorium reactors
They’re welcome to buy from my home country of Canada. We aren’t going to extort people over it, or close the strait of uranium for 6 months and cause a global energy catastrophe.
