Seems like the real choice here is to perish via climate change caused by burning fossil fuels - OR - embrace the non-guaranteed but certainly possible dangers of nuclear power. Its a lousy decision to have to make but in my mind it comes down to this.

Its not so much the US and EU that I worry about; Its the less developed nation states. Plenty of potential for F-ups all around but at least we've been doing it successfully for some time in the US/EU.

We should obviously be building nuclear plants as fast as possible while recognizing that they present outsize risks.

I want more nuclear plants, but not if they are run by the same myopic system that gave us Deepwater Horizon.
