Nuclear power plants do not increase typhoons or their intensity.
Of course they don't.
The soil around the nuclear plants are warm even in cold winter months.
The cooling water is release into water bays to cool down the water.
The Mississippi River there in the Quad Cities is a proven fact.
Seagulls are present there and so is vegetation that you'd find way down south of the Mississippi River.
I saw the changes there over a span of 55 years.
How old are the Quad City nuclear plants.

Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It emits beta radiation, which can be very dangerous if inhaled. Like other forms of ionizing radiation, tritium can cause cancer, genetic mutations and birth defects, and assorted other adverse health effects.

My friend? I've gone from burning trash in our suburbs to them creating landfills. Mountains of trash that are real mountains.
We hide, bury our unwanteds. Body parts, garbage, dead animals, chemicals, biohazards...even Nuke waste...we just hide it.
When nothings left here...we will need to leave...or transform it....but.,we Earthlings have a very poor track record.😕

We humans are now worse than the Malon of Star Trek: Voyager stuffing our garage in every nook and cranny of our own damn home planet! I now rename the Earth as Planet Junkyon from Transformers: The Animated Movie! 🌏🗑️☢️
Welcome to the planet of junk! 🤮
Dominion Virginia Power and federal nuclear regulatory staff members covered up knowledge of geologic faulting at the North Anna Power Station site in 1973, according to a U.S. Justice Department memo.
The company, then operating as Virginia Electric and Power Co., or Vepco, told the former Atomic Energy Commission in June 1973 that "faulting of rock at the site is neither known nor suspected," even though the company knew about the existence of faulting at North Anna, the 1977 memo said.

The wisest thing I've heard in a long time.

From the above link, the U.S. has basically done the same but in the atmosphere and not the ocean. Hopefully the levels in both cases are so low the effects will be negligible.
