Equating the energy source with the lowest death/kwh

oil is not the energy source with the lowest death/kwh

are you saying you think we should go to war over oil?

I just have no idea how you got there.

and how does this tie in with climate change?

Vilifying the tools we may need to combat climate change makes it far more likely. We don't have access to solar power that can be mass produced, with no unpleasant waste by-products, that can handle the load of the world; until we do, we should talk responsibly about the technologies that we do have. Jill Stein speaks about nuclear energy more ignorantly than someone who has yet sat in a classroom on the subject for 5 minutes. Its rare that a view can be so simplistically wrong, that a facebook meme can correct it this thoroughly. There are thousands of experts around the world that could have corrected her misconceptions, many of which would have probably done so for free, in an hour of education she seems to desperately need. This unwillingness to defer to those with expertise, on a matter of consequence, should be more embarrassing than those that deny climate change, especially as the variables of concern are largely much more demonstrable than those relating to changes in the atmosphere.
