....all because of climate change. As to cost, must factor in fossil fuel emissions. No way around it.

Those targets are EU imposed, and as long as Sweden is in the EU, they are subject to them. The previous Swedish government was all-in on this stuff. What they are really addressing is EU mandates, specifically the EU Green Deal, which Poland's prime minister denounced as "the expensive climate policy of the EU". If you are compelled by the EU to deal with it, nuclear is a much better way, as Poland itself is also doing. But Poland is using coal as long as it can. Poland's coal fired electricity was some of the cheapest in Europe, until the EU Green Deal came along. Now France's nuclear power is some of the cheapest. Wind and solar powered Germany? That is the most expensive electricity in not only Europe, but the world and has been since Merkel got seriously into the Energie Wende.

I think Sweden is well aware of climate change and are using nuclear power as a way of meeting their needs while addressing climate change. A quick google search will show any reader that yes you are correct in saying solar and wind are not as reliable as Sweden would like. Nuclear power will provide the reliability while allowing the country to reduce its emissions and hit its target CO2 goals of net zero by 2045. You left that part out. Most far right publications do. Sorry to school you.
Big Bob supports the use of nuclear power.

Big Bob: You still have not made any salient point, while I only speak in total truth.

You might not like my real truths, but that is your Leftist failing, not mine.

We cracked the code. It wasn't hard.

Big Bob: Once again, I have no idea what your point is.

My point is that confirmed Leftists may be educated far beyond their level of comprehension, but most are not that smart. That is a confirmed fact that is playing out right before US, everyday.

Odd, don't you attack the eggheads at Duke, UNC, ECU etc.? These universities are the gold standard and pride of the Carolina's. And yet most are fairly liberal, and according to you filled with stupid people? IDK buddy.
