You were using the example of "left" opposition to nuclear power as a complete or partial refutation to my point that there really is no or very little "left" opposition to power technology.

That is opposition to a power technology. Not opposition to all power technology.

I did not interpret "power sources" as singular in your original remark:

> The demands to remove power sources come from the left.

Maybe I write too much like a journalist, but you've misunderstood that sentence. It would read "remove all power sources" if I wanted to say that.

I also wouldn't have written "remove a power source", since there are movements on the left against several different power sources, including nuclear and coal and maybe more. In the context of this discussion we might however stick to just talking about nuclear and solar.
