When looking for public perception, especially for a younger audience, social media is the way to go.

Upon conducting searches on Twitter, Tiktok and Facebook, it is apparent that there is more conversation surrounding the Monticello plant as compared to the Prairie Island plant.

• This may be because the tritium leak was a more recent scandal and thus would have a wider reaction. 
• However, even prior to that incident, interactions surrounding the Monticello plant were positive with sentiments championing nuclear power as a sustainable source of energy while interactions surrounding the Prairie Island plant were mostly from the Indian community advocating for their views against the plant.
