This article might be from 2011, but it nonetheless provides some insightful food-for-thought. Although not all contained within the article, Ive learned a surprising lot about nuclear energy in recent months -- such as how its indirectly a form of steam energy, as the nuclear reactions heat water to make steam to turn turbines -- and it remains an intrigue to me given the immense potential it has for technological advancement. But just within this article, I appreciated the logical parallel Epstein drew, such as how the nuclear accident led to zero deaths and injuries, whereas things like dam failures lead to floods, natural gas plants can explode (while nuclear plants literally cannot), etc.
