The volatility of natural gas prices and the potential for restrictions on coal-fueled power plants have combined to generate greater demand for nuclear power.

 | Nuclear Power Nuclear Power is clean, green, safe, and cheap. It is the silver bullet for carbon alternatives. Those who claim it is unclean or unsafe are ignorant and tragically misinformed. Antinuclear power groups are run by demagogues. Their intention is to get you afraid of what you don't understand so they can be elected and pass ridiculous laws you understand even less. Nuclear energy is nothing to fear, and is the ONLY viable alternative to fossil fuels. And is extremely clean, safe, and cheap. http://physics.isu.edu/radinf/np-risk.htm http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/thyd/ne161/alwong/ne161.html |
