To be fair, they were dismantling a wind farm to mine the coal instead just the other day, but I see your point of course.
Yeah that was some stupid shit, but coal was phased out at the same rate as nuclear in the last years. You also got to take into account that the decision to phase out nuclear was made before a critical mass (lol) of people realized that CO2 is a far bigger problem. I think the plants could be run some years more, but it takes more to flip a switch for that to work. We neither have personnel nor the supply chains anymore and building new plants will take decades, so it's far easier to just put all effort into renewables.
Yes because we have nothing else and never will.

That sounds like progress
