Furthermore there isnt much research on how the people living around a NPP are affected by the radiation there, for example around the NPP Krümmel a significantly increased occurance of Leukemia, especially with children, was registered.
Saying "nuclear energy is secure, if nobody makes a mistake" is much like saying "communism is superior in every way, it was just never executed properly". Accidents happened and we should learn from the past
