Also, you'd have to move them across the surface on a monthly basis.

Biggest thing against nuclear power is the cost associated with it. Other, sustainable sources of energy like wind and solar, combined with hydrogen and batteries, are way cheaper due to their simplicity. Thorium reactors are a nice idea but need so much development (costs) that they will take a while to become a reality, if ever at all. Probably nuclear fusion will be available sooner than thorium fission for power generation, which also needs decades of development. And then there's still the problem of nuclear waste. Maybe not a huge problem, but still one without a viable solution.

That's no way to behave as a guest.

2nd map only shows full red or blue dots, whereas in reality each dot would be a pie-chart of red and blue.

Still need to investigate the sustainability of it before I would try, but presently there's no produce on sale here. But I'm pretty used to dishes without meat by now, so there's no direct need. I suppose it would be more targeted towards current meateaters, hopefully they stop destroying life on the planet at some point.

So right side up means its on it's side?

You left out eradication from climate change or biodiversity loss. Not instant, but an even less zero chance. Quite likely, in fact.

We can currently choose between:

  • climate change causing drought, heat, rain, flooding and storms with hail or tornados;
  • biodiversity loss preventing pollinating our food and capturing carbon (see climate change);
  • nuclear war in a politically unstable world;
  • tyrannic forms of government threatening our freedom;
  • underpaid slave labour in a capitalistic society, also threatening our freedom;
  • no way to divert that incoming meteor;
  • business as usual causing the next pandemic;
  • more old than young people leading to less care and less work altogether;
  • AI taking over the world;
  • any mix of the above leading to a collapse of society. Feel free to expand.

'Cause it's a billboard. The tiny ones tend to get overlooked.

Just go eat plant-based all together, so we won't have these problems that endanger the existence of life on our planet. Including humans.
