You are really taking this personally aren't you? A simple comment meant to be a lighthearted jab at the USA for completely ignoring nuclear power and you take it as gospel? Incredible.
The USA has 98 operating nuclear plants. Those plants are 10% of the installed capacity and provide nearly 20% of the power we use. Somewhere in the range of 160 million tons of carbon is NOT emitted into the atmosphere as a result. If China continues on their nuclear power path, which seems very likely, then they will soon be emitting less CO2 than the USA. I don't have hard facts for that but it is pretty straight forward. The more low carbon, or in the case of nuclear no carbon, power generation sources operating then the cleaner your emissions. China has a long road ahead but they are moving there faster than the USA.
Try not to take things so personally. It makes you sound like a dick.
Also, please feel free to start educating yourself about nuclear power.
[Dr. Rogers wrote a decent book] (https://www.amazon.com/Nuclear-Energy-Leadership-Lessons-Operators/dp/1593702450)
Raymond Murray also wrote an okayish book. It is easy to understand but has some odd math problems.
What the hell has happened to reddit? Why is everyone fucking on edge all the time?
Edit: China is currently operating, constructing, or planning 21 nuclear power plants. Nuclear will take on a major role with their low regulatory environment.
