A balanced view of the whole deal. No one is talking about the radiation hazards and nuclear waste disposal. Actually these are the primary subjects to be considered. It is the question of survival of species. I AM NOT AGAINST NUCLEAR ENERGY. Radiation hazards and nuclear waste disposal is the most important and expensive activity connected with the nuclear power. Google “Group up for �17bn Sellafield job”. They need to spend 17Billion sterling pound in ten years. The security against radiation is to be fool-proof for 10000 years.

I fully agree with you. In a Nuclear power plant ,more than an 80 per cent increase in the costs attributable to spent fuel management (after taking account of appropriate credits or charges for recovered plutonium and uranium from reprocessing)” and this difference in costs “is likely to persist for many decades.”
