Maybe not even that long.
Connecticut gets 46%% of its energy from nuclear power. Dimwits forced the closure of Connecticut's nuke industry in 1997 a rapture of fear.
There was NOT ONE fundie anti-nuke who shed even a tear for all the people who
died from fossil fuels that year. Why? Because anti-muke fundies couldn't care less about how many people get killed by dangerous fossil fuels. They have no moral integrity and would rather make empty promises about 2050.
The number of Amory Lovins worshipping car culture brats who have distributed respirators to the victims of fossil fuel toxicity is zero.
The number of people who have been killed by nuclear power in Connecticut is zero.
The number of people who have been killed by fossil fuels while apologists in the fundie anti-nuke
ignored their deaths is way more than zero, on the order of millions per year.
Connecticut's electricity profile, including the year that Connecticut replaced all of its nuclear power with dangerous fossil fuel, killing lots of people in the Northeast is here:
