You're completely wrong about the risks. Between the three largest nuclear accidents, Three Mile Island, Fukushima, and Chernobyl, only one, Chernobyl, had or will have any fatalities. Of those fatalities, only about 50 are from direct radiation radiation exposure with another 3,000 estimated to die from cancer, but that's so small we can't a rise in cancer in a population of the size exposed. There's never going to be another Chernobyl. Chernobyl used a reactor design which no one else used because of its safety flaws. Compared to coal that kills several times that number every day. Before you say something about wind or solar, they both have higher death per unit of energy ratios than nuclear. You've fallen for the classic trap of judging a few large events to be more dangerous than many many more small events.
