It is worthy of a book on the machinations.<BR/><BR/>There are those who are true believers in global warming from carbon emissions. And some of those see nuclear as an incredible fortuitous way to reduce their nation's carbon footprint while still providing the same amount of electricity to its citizens or even increasing production.<BR/><BR/>But there are others who just view the global warming meme as a way to push their radical ideologies. Such as ludditism, agricultural collectivism, top down control eg.. rationing. For those people they have been fighting nuclear power for a decade, because allowing it would defeat the entire purpose of what they are doing. But the pro-nuclear side seems to have really gained support especially in this recent energy crisis and maybe even 'critical-mass' of momentum.<BR/><BR/>--aa2Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
