    Because nuclear is pretty cool whereas renewables are less awesome. Think about it, the nuclear symbol ☢️ is much more interesting and cooler than the renewable ♻️ symbol. We all know this is what really matters.

      That’s a great point, can’t argue with you on that one. Clearly we need to rebrand renewables as something cooler. Maybe like “Element Zero” or something, and we can use like a wicked tribal tattoo for the symbol or something.
