Haha yea, I'm sure everyone understood what you meant. Just letting you know for the future.

No, I don't agree with nuclear energy at all. This is not only a recent change of mind due to the events in Fukushima though, I've been signing petitions against it years ago already.

It's easy to say that it's producing clean energy, but that is simply not true. Like Sofia said, what about the nuclear waste?

There simply is no safe way to contain radiation. It's something uncontrollable and the way nuclear energy has become the main energy source in so many countries just shows once again the arrogance and feeling of being undestructable of the human kind.

 

Yes, I probably sound like a Greenpeace activist now, but I don't care. :tongue:

 

I have the impression that many people in Germany sound like that esp. after the recent discussion...and I am with you

Nuclear is a good stepping stone between the general reduction in coal/gas and the renewable energy sources which actually can produce enough electricity to keep things running.

 

Even James Lovelock says that nuclear is the only way to go, as renewables are 50+ years away from being able to be used everywhere
