Was wondering about how long nuclear power would be sustainable for. Could we run out of the elements required?
Is there a time line if we shift to all nuclear.

Fissile materials (nuclear fuel) are a finite resource, but also comprise a not-insignificant percentage of the total mass of Earth’s crust.
Uranium, for example, can be harvested from seawater, and there is very likely enough there to power humanity for millions of years.
