I'm not entirely certain why more effort isn't put into nuclear power.

It's relatively safe, we know this. And that's with the painfully primitive design is basically sticking hot things in water and collecting steam.
Imagine if we just used the same tech as a nuclear battery. Create the electricity directly. I don't know why we don't but it seems like an obvious missed opportunity.
For some strange reason humans always choose the most environmentally destructive path for everything. Even when it's actually cheaper to be sustainable.
Just think of anything in your life. So you reuse your water bottles? Did you even know you can fill them back up? Canada just banned biodegradable plastic for no apparent reason other than apparently to hurt the environment and put businesses out of business.
We are truly too stupid of a people to live and deserve the apocalypse.
