There's a lot of straw men being fought in the comments again.

The main issue with nuclear power in Europe has always been the storage of nuclear waste, for which many countries still don't have a long-term solution.

Proponents of nuclear power like to pretend the opposition exists merely on the basis of "but what if it goes boom!", so they don't need to face the reality that countries like Germany are sitting on a lot of nuclear waste right now that is just "temporarily" stashed away in various places - some of which already had issues with flooding, like Asse II.
