The author, who gives every appearance of being funded by the industry, founded an activist group that claims:<p>&gt; Aim for 50% nuclear at least, as per the science.<p>Which suggests a pretty cavalier attitude to &quot;the science&quot;.<p>edit: I take it back, she&#x27;s in cahoots with Shellenberger and GWPF so it&#x27;s the fossil fuel industry that she&#x27;s supporting.<p>I thought the timing was mysteriously exact for both her and Shellenberger to be running the same &quot;I used to be an environmentalist&quot; story:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.netzerowatch.com&#x2F;gwpf-welcomes-newfound-realism-among-prominent-green-campaigners&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.netzerowatch.com&#x2F;gwpf-welcomes-newfound-realism-...</a><p>&gt; In recent days, former Extinction Rebellion spokesman Zion Lights has announced her conversion to the cause of nuclear energy, while so-called “eco-modernist” Michael Shellenberger has gone further, and apologised for the years he spent scaremongering over climate change in a long article at Forbes website.<p>&gt; Welcoming these developments, GWPF director Dr Benny Peiser said:<p>&gt;    It’s great to see these prominent green campaigners disavowing the eco-extremism that has done such damage to the world.
