Promises mean nothing. We'll start talking once we get some contract written up.

That, and why 2050? It only takes 10 years to build nuclear plants, so why can't it be 2040? Or just pump in more money into the joint effort into SMRs?

Honestly, until I see money exchange hands, this is no better than China commiting towards climate change goals while simultaneously building up a dozen new coal power plants.

Because they'd rather not do anything and just start a virtue signaling program like that shit going down in ontario with the 'recycling initiative' to distract everyone from the fact all our 'recycling programs' send their 'recycling' to singapore and other poor countries to deal with they made a bunch of trash composting programs that 'will help the farmers'. Well, I'm friends with farmers and I've done my share of farming and random compost with zero chemical control cannot be utilized by industrial farmers, especially when the average education level prevents people from following instructions properly. "We're banning black garbage bags to help the environment" = "were not going to do a damn thing but we're going to incentivize fighting between neighbours so they don't realize we're the actual enemy as we continue to sell canadians down a river to our close friends and family making weapons for every war currently going on"
