The problem isn't carbon, the problem is that you have to get it from somewhere, and that creates a fuel supply chain which is costly in the best of cases, and a massive geopolitical risk in the worst.

Technically speaking, you have to "get" nuclear fuel too - but it's SO energy dense that you don't really consider sourcing it an issue...

@Twig

Russia, China, US should create a new "belt and road" style deployment of small modular nuclear reactors generating electricity and heat for industrial uses. Around the world wherever welcome. Ports first. For electric boats and trains.

I would have added France but they will be Muslim dominated soon and their nuclear capabilities become threat not benefit.

1. France is ruled by its farmers, their entire participation in the EU is based on protection of the French agricultural sector. Farmers are treated astonishingly well...

2. France never really gave up colonialism. To this day, like half of Africa uses a currency that is printed by the Bank of France.

3. As a result of 2, they import a lot of cheap labor from Africa and the middle east. But unlike Germany or the UK, that cheap labor is NOT given demi-god treatment. I would challenge you to find a "migrant raped a white girl and got community service" article FROM FRANCE.

4. As a result of 3, places like Paris are dirty and full of pickpockets and petty bullshit - but the French send in their police and intelligence to quietly sweep up any serious problems.

5. The French prefer that The Way The Sausage Is Made stays behind the curtain. This is because they don't need their dumb university communists protesting in the street over it, and they don't need other countries calling them out as dirty colonists.

6. Americans and Jews don't really like the French, because unlike a country they've vanquished, the French are still actual geopolitical competition. So for years they've been cast as dirty and smelly and cowardly, and most recently, Muslim. Which is basically fine for the French, because they're NOT talking about what the French are actually doing.
