Nuclear power still requires water to function and to cool the reactors. they are not sustainable. and dangerous too. What we need is to reduce our power demand, it is not feasable to meet it even with nuclear power when our power demanding ever increasing.
That water isn't lost or something it's just evaporated in the cooling tower and rained down later.
The total deaths from nuclear power is significantly lower than any other means of generating power including all disasters which actually turn out to have killed almost no one.
