Germany is closing half of its reactors before the end of the year
The nuclear issue is fascinating to watch unfold, over the years.  I didn&#x27;t expect the rational pro-nuclear to be almost as religious as their opponents. Which makes them also refuse to engage in debate.<p>So, here is one of the thoughts that crossed my mind (and I am well aware there are counter arguments to it ). 
With its  high density of energy and perceived higher potential to harm its surrounding environment, nuclear power requires a level of State Capacity and stability that is not found over half of the planet. 
It is not obvious that it can be a widespread, long term alternative for most of the world economies.<p>With that in mind, isn&#x27;t it better if some of the wealthier countries basically front the cost and explore completely alternative (nuclear-free) systems for all the others ? Even if we globally end up with an energy mix ?<p>Curious to hear opinions with that point of view in mind.
