This is a (slightly older) article about Nuclear Energy and climate change. It's a hottly debated topic in climate communities, so I thought some of you would enjoy to read it.

Another article that brings up some more points against nuclear power can be found here.

I'd be interested what you ppl think of the matter.

What about the newly conceived thorium reactors that use the nuclear "waste" (spent fuel) to create energy? I think nuclear as we know it might be out of date,but that doesn't mean the technology can'tcontinued to develop in new and better ways.
