Solar project to destroy thousands of Joshua trees in the Mojave Desert

It’s crazy to me that a destructive photovoltaic solar project like this one is considered reasonable, but a new nuclear power plant within or adjacent to a city is beyond the pale.
@SirBoostALot @Umbrias @usa Once again you are missing the point about the trees. They are not being harvested. They are being cleared away to make room for a PV solar plant that could go in any other sunny location. I do not personally care very much about them, but they are part of a special piece of wilderness that is being destroyed for no good reason. As for nuclear power safety and importance, here is a good article to help you find some perspective: https://earth.org/nuclear-which-is-the-safest-energy-source/#:~:text=A%202013%20study%20commissioned%20by,fuels%20from%20entering%20into%20the
