I want to be clear: Donald Trump’s administration is temporary. California’s commitment is not.
He will be gone in three years. Our resolve to confront climate change is enduring and we remain a stable, reliable partner in that fight.

Nuclear power is expensive, slow to build and creates waste that must be managed for centuries. It is always on, so it doesn’t go deal with peak demand, the biggest challenge for wind and solar. In contrast, wind and solar are massively cheaper and capacity can be built very fast.
