Pleaseeeee.... Give me a break!

I think this article needs more research. Coal burning plants are environmentally disastrous than nuclear fuel plants. Please look up aerial snaps of before and after pictures of all coal burning plants in India. Resarch indicates Coal burining plant pollutes Air, Water and environment than any other energy source. Today there are better technology and Engineering available to construct nuclear plants (Ex: Japan nuclear plants which withstood earthquakes) and to dispose nuclear wastes. Today, there is a big movement in US to move towards nuclear plants, but they are constrained because of some mis-informed, short sighted tree huggers who made amendments in individual state legislator.

Hydro Energy, Windmill, solar Energy all combined we would only be able to generate miniscule of Energy needs.

I wonder if Claude's article would have been pro-123 agreement if we have signed up this pact with France instead of "Nasty" US of A.

Pleaseeeeeeeeeee.. give me a break!

For Information >>

Hydroelectricity also produces Green House emmission ( Methane Gas)
Methane is more a problem than CARBON DIOXIDE.

To have Hydro you need to keep on Desilting the reservoir ( Who say Hydro is one time investment)

Look into Land submerged when we talk of Hydro Electricity in KERALA

Why KARAT is not able to get going Hydroelectricity in his home state ???

With Coal based plants ( almost 50% of US electricity contributor) US has spoiled its SEA shore with Mercury poisoning .
