If serious about industrialization, then it's a contradiction to say nuclear is not needed. With cheap, abundant electricity, industry  blooms. Nuclear IS cheap over life of the plant, decomm included. One says, "I'm not against nuclear, but we don't need it yet; growth projections don't justify it." He/she is either ignorant or malicious: Nuclear power changes growth projections! In 1920s, H.G. Wells wrote, "there is entirely too much steel in the world." The context: his rant against industrialization. And that is the ill-concealed view of elites today: In a world of 7 billion people, they want to reduce us to 1 or 2 billion. Africans, having least political power, are dying first! Egypt, Kenya, Nigeria, Vietnam, and oil-rich Saudis all want nuclear! India abandoning nuclear? No, it is building more. Borrowing for nuclear build is a sure thing, repaying itself many times. Read Power to Save the World by G Cravens, Atomic Awakening by J Mahaffey. Study arguments, not author pedigree.
