Is it not? What is it instead? Carbon negative?

Greenpeace was founded to oppose nuclear energy, because it would lead to nuclear war (that was their position at least), which illustrates that, even now, nuclear power is considered not-green.

Greenpeace is a big part of the problem, especially with most of the European left being aligned with them on nuclear hate.

Being "green" is like being "organic" compared to being carbon-neutral which is something you can just calculate.

Germany turned down all of its nuclear plants and is actively demolishing them. Good luck with that.
