Climate activist Greta Thunberg - who, for some reason apparently has an opinion that matters on the topic - has officially handed down her latest determination on which types of energy are better than others to the eagerly waiting world leaders who take their policy cues from the teenager.

This week Thunberg made the "headline" that nuclear is a better option than coal, something that has been obvious to anyone who has looked energy pragmatically, without fear of not being "woke" or "green" enough. 

Thunberg says in a forthcoming interview that it is a "bad idea" to turn off nuclear power stations if it means switching to coal, according to Politico on Tuesday. 

"It depends. If they are already running, I think it would be a mistake to shut them down and turn to coal," she said about nuclear plants. 

Nowhere is the nuclear agenda more important than in Germany, a country that had planned to close its 3 remaining nuclear plants at the end of the year before it was launched into a massive energy crisis with skyrocketing prices as a result of the Russia/Ukraine war. They have now decided to extend the life of 2 of the plants.
