>Nuclear is a strong potential solution for climate change but is politically unpopular. Could something be done to address this

No. There are no political champions for nuclear, and most environmentalists are actively hostile to it. And to be fair, starting reinvestment in nuclear infrastructure in light of how inexpensive natural gas is, would be expensive. Nuclear also doesn't play well with solar and wind, while natural gas is a perfect complement to renewables.
