Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Nuclear isn't just benefits. There are major costs and risks. It's sad how both sides are so ignorant to the arguments of the other side. And no one is an idiot to came to different conclusions.

    The risks of nuclear energy are well managed already. Out of all nuclear power plants built to an even remotely modern design, exactly zero have suffered a meltdown, and I don't see any reason to expect that to change.

    That's not the problem. The problem is that modern nuclear power plants are ludicrously expensive to build. Small modular reactors are cheaper, but they have a serious problem with radioactive waste output.
