They're not saying that nuclear power has the only impact. Just that since 1945, our overall environmental impact has increased dramatically- with China building 800 GW of coal plants being a perfect example. While our per capita impact in many ways has decreased, the huge increase in population has caused the aggregate impact to increase greatly.

Also, while Japan and France may be scaling back their nuclear power generation, the "anti-nuclear" Obama administration has given the final approval for 4 new reactors. They're the first new ones since the 70s.

"The broken English looks deliberately bad and doesn't exhibit any of the classic comprehension mistakes you actually expect to see in "Konglish". i.e it reads to me like an English speaker pretending to be bad at writing English."

That's your "proof that NK couldn't possibly have hacked Sony"?

Seriously?

An official statement from the FBI isn't exactly the same as some anonymous blog.

You can doubt the FBI all you want, but I don't know of anyone else having access to the primary evidence involved.

And as the other reply alluded to, what would be the motive for anyone else besides North Korea? It would have to be a very psycho ex-employee to risk going to jail for the rest of their lives for no personal gain. The threat to bomb theaters showing the film doesn't fit the disgruntled employee theory at all.

Yep. Build nuclear power plants or shut the fuck up. I'm sick and tired of hearing "denier, denier, denier" from these people and then when solutions are proposed, they say "hell no, you can't do that".

Who are you talking to? Mr. Strawman?

The US is currently building 4 nuclear reactors. "Anti-Nuclear" Obama appointed a bunch of "anti-nuclear activists" to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. They have approved 4 reactor construction applications. For those keeping score, that would be 4 more approved applications than Ronald Reagan, George HW Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush's RCS did combined over the previous 28 years.

At the same time, France and Japan are shutting down reactors. One of the new French President's campaign promises was to scale back France's use of nuclear power.
