Today's debate - Nuclear power
 
Yes, the one George Bush can't pronounce, the gov has just approved more nuclear power stations in the UK - Greenpeace is consulting it's lawyers to see if they can take them to court - what do you think?

Greenpeace dont want any power to be made, unless its from some sort of perpetual device :rolleyes:

Anyway, that aside; I'm all for nuclear power. Its comparitivly clean, produces alot of energy, and we know where the waste has gone when we get rid of it! Unlike "fossil fuel" power stations, where the waste is just ejected into the air. I apreciate the difficulty of disposing of nuclear waste, but we have methods for that which are being developed all the time. Here's a wikipedia (!) page detailing some of the methods:

Until we get a better source of power (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_fusion) then I think nuclear fission is the way to go

It's only those uneducated about nuclear power that are most afraid of it, providing it's done with enough expertise I'm all for it. I'd love a country run entirely on renewable sources but it's just not tangible.

I more concerned about the French building some sort of Generation 3 reactors in Northern France.

That goes critical, kiss good by to the South of England.

That'll be most people then...utter the words "nuclear" and "chemicals", and you got mass hysteria on your hands

Damn tree-huggers
