A chart showing the growth of nuclear energy from 1965 to the present, which shows growth stagnating and declining in the 80s (around when 3 mile island happened, well before Chernobyl). Meanwhile, wind and solar start in the 2000s and follow an exponential growth which quickly overtakes the total nuclear installed capacity.

Nuclear took 20 years to reach 200GW, at a huge cost, causing several terrible accidents and producing a toxic waste that needs to be guarded for thousands of years.
Wind and solar reached 200GW in half the time for a fraction of the cost and without significant incidents.
