I have just read this book to try to understand how Bill Gates came to invest so much money in the concept of Small Modular Nuclear Reactors.  I would recommend the book as a good logical look at the problems we face over climate change.  It mentions, without much analysis, nuclear power as a contributor to a net zero carbon world.

Anyone who reads the book or has already read it might like to read some of these articles as well to question Bill Gates’ enthusiasm for this technology.

I remain puzzled as to why he is so enthusiastic about Small Modular Nuclear Reactors and doesn’t really discuss the major reservations explained in the articles cited above.
