Is there another way we can reliably meet current and future energy demands?

Nope, there isn’t. Despite what the green gang thinks. Not a chance. Hence, nuclear is the logical choice.

I'm a green gang member and think nuclear is the only way atm

It really is. It wouldnt take that long & would do a damned fine job of powering all kinds of stuff. Period.
