We're getting a bit lost. No argument there, even if I have some doubt about the numbers it just confirms what I thought anyway. Except I'd NEVER label nuclear as 'renewable' as long it is not fusion.

And I also DO doubt the low death value of nuclear in particular. Eventually we're all gonna die. If people have been exposed to nuclear radiation just a small number is going to die 'instantly'. Most will develop and suffer (more or less severe) symptoms later on and maybe die prematurely.

I wouldn't call it renewable, either, though I would call it clean and very low carbon. The making of solar panels is a toxic process, too... nothing is perfect. People living close to NPPs get more radiation from the occasional X-ray at the doctor. But it's not zero.
