Anything but renewables brings global catastrophe and civilization collapse nearer.

Collapse of civilization would deliver a kind of energy independence, but maybe not the kind you want.

Power from renewables is so radically cheaper than anything else ever known that not building it out as fast as possible costs strictly more. That building out renewables fast enough might fend off global catastrophe is an extra benefit.

Building nukes would steal capital from building out renewables.
