Most Germans favour nuclear energy relaunch, not phase-out

Will Germany go through with its plan to phase out nuclear energy? The climate debate makes it a sizzling issue in the run-up to the 2009 general election in the country. Public opinion may be changing in favour of nuclear power. But its opponents are determined to carry on their battle.

Phasing out the most efficient and least polluting energy source we know of is pure idiocy.

This video bangs on about how & where to store nuclear waste. yet in 20 to 30 years there will be no need to store nuclear waste as it will be used as nuclear fuel for fast spectrum nuclear reactors. The residual waste of that endevour only needs isolation for 300 years not the 10,000 years of the once through fuel cycle. The whole issue of nuclear waste is being blown out of proportin and is miniscule to the waste from fossil fuels.

We should just go back to natural gas. It's cheaper, safer, has no radioactive byproduct and with a little effort, very little pollution produced.

And let's forget all that CO2 bullshit. We breath it out, plants absorb it and the ocean has made more CO2 in the past decade then we have made in our time on earth. Let's focus on the real pollutants.
