Nuclear power is extremely green when compared to fossil fuel and can act as an excellent stopgap while ramping up renewable energy sources. You’re right that it isn’t a long term solution, but even replacing a few coal fired plants with nuclear ones for the next 30 years would be better than running the coal plants for 20 years until you can displace them with renewables.
