Nuclear Energy is a lot better than the alternative

I, for one, think we MUST move to nuclear power if we are going to continue as a technological society... The typical dirt coal plant releases more radiation to the atmosphere than a properly run nuclear plant.

One thing is certain, we cannot meet the world's growing energy needs with hydrocarbons without creating ecological disaster... right now it is either nuclear, or an unacceptable reduction in our standard of living...
