22. In practice, it probably won't fix those problems for everybody. Maybe few.
In theory, enough reactors could be used to scrub CO2 from the atmosphere, and chemically fix it. I doubt we have enough time to really do that. Mostly what I hope for is building enough reactors to preserve "islands of civilization," or some such.

I think an awful lot of demand destruction is now going to occur only thru population collapse. Building as many nuclear plants as possible is a way to mitigate that as much as possible. However much that is.
