Nuclear now

We get reports from various news sources almost daily telling us that climate change is an existential threat. The dictionary says that means An existential threat is a threat to something's very existence—when the continued being of something is at stake or in danger. It is difficult to take this threat seriously since the answer to the whole problem is nuclear energy and no one says that. So the end of the world is coming and some say soon yet no one is talking about nuclear. The only conclusion is that they don't really mean it and they have some ulterior motive for saying that. We know why the fossil fuel people don't want to talk about it and we know why the wind and solar people keep quiet about it but what about the ordinary citizens. Do they not think about the issue. Why haven't the scientist brought it up. They understand that nuclear is carbon free, doesn't contaminate the air and water, and can be used to make hydrogen for transportation. It is totally bewildering.
