You can't get your air conditioning.

And so I have a real issue with that.

And I think it always, always comes from people who grew up in rich countries.

Right.

Yeah.

Yeah, with the math.

Well, net zero carbon is kind of like a weird term.

Yeah, let's just say like, what would it take for the United States to be 100% clean electricity?

And we'll go back to what we actually know, which is nuclear is 20% of the United States electricity.

And let's just say we want to switch all of that.

Then we get what?

Five times the amount of nuclear.

So we're talking about 100 reactors, more or less for 20 percent.

So we're talking about 500 reactors.

You're not going to repurpose the plant itself, right?

Like the reactor core.

You're not just going to go into the coal boiler.

But what's cool about it is that a lot of the same infrastructure that is needed for a coal plant is also needed for a nuclear plant.

So like cooling towers, roads, admin buildings...

All of those things you can just go in and you just basically build a reactor right next to the existing boiler.
