The "green" movement to squash nuclear going back to the 60s was the best investment the fossil fuel industry has ever made.

I'm really curious in reading more about this. If you have some resources, don't hesitate to share.

About fossil fuel companies donating money to anti-nuclear "environmental" movements?

Hopefully you don't believe it would be a step too far for the fossil fuel industry that has been responsible for wars and regime change and cartel behavior going back over a century to subvert or create fake environmental movements to keep their competition down.

It would be more outlandish to believe the fossil fuel industry isn't a major driving force behind the anti-scientific anti-environmental anti-nuclear movement. Follow the money.

I wouldn't be surprised to discover that USSR (and then Russia) was sponsoring these movements.

USSR and Russia exported nuclear energy (in form of builded power plants, too). For green movements, your own coal lobbyists are suffice ;)
