Maybe this is already widely understood on here, but I feel understanding how the anti-communist left was leveraged to fight nuclear energy.
As more people are reading this I wanted to share what I consider to be a superior analysis https://communistperspective.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-nuclear-debate-for-and-against.html
And to be clear, you can be pro-renewable without being anti-nuclear I am referring to many of the European Green parties that are anti-nuclear above all else. Nuclear has it’s drawbacks, but it is preferable to climate change, for now.
That second link in my comment actually lays out how the seawall at the Fukushima plant was not built to recommended specifications and that the radiation actually didn’t even kill anyone, the tsunami did.
As to the minerals renewable energy relies on - I found this to be pretty informative. There are a lot of imperialist mining operations that love wind power as well.
