In the interest of global stability, once the west have developed a safe, reliable SMR, would it not be in our best interest to gift this technology to developing nations?
In the example mentioned about Thailand increasing coal production by 2040; this would not be needed if they were getting super cheap, clean electricity and process heat from nuclear energy.
Train them to operate it, train them to maintain it. Develop ties between countries based on science education and respect. Surely this is better all round than gifting aid to countries?
Stop giving them fish! Start teaching them to make nets.
If we want to ensure quality of life and continued increasing prosperity, I don’t see an alternative...
This was a really interesting discussion.
I wonder if we could re-frame the discussion.
