Why France? This is about Germany. Are the German reactors of the same type?

Even if so, if Germany were to shut down their nuclear reactors, they would rely even more than already on French nuclear power, as well as fossil power (coal, oil, gas). The process of building more renewable energy sources won't be delayed due to the extension of runtime of these nuclear plants. Would you rather burn more fossil fuels and release more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere?

Serious question. I'm trying to understand your position. What do you suggest?

Actual present reactors in this present year in France.

While the danger was there for some steam turbines systems (generated by nuclear, fossil and biofuel energy), there was never a situation where the temperatures reached a critical level.

This is more a demonstration that alternatives to fossil fuel is necessary right now with more clean energy, including nuclear.
