"Nuclear is clean, safe and practically inexhaustible."
Is it now? Has any nation yet found a solution to store the waste? France ships it to Germany, which still has only a "temporary storage (leaking) yet for example.
Safe? It's unlikely that something happens, but far from save, because you can lose control over the reaction, unlike Fusion. I don't feel save with all the Soviet designed and underfunded stuff standing around here in Europe.
Inexhaustible. I always wonder how long the power would really last if we switch fully to nuclear plants - I read reports ranging from 15 years to 1000 years of Uran available. And most of it in less than democratic or stable countries. Do you have a better source regarding the amount of Uran? Would breeders really solve the resource problem if there is one?
