Is Britain's future really nuclear?

Another good article setting out the arguments, I think fairly. The last word is "Nuclear power has had 30 years of subsidies, billions of dollars poured into it and it still only produces 7% of the world's energy. We've got to find another way of doing it.' "
In fact it has been money wasted in comparison with what similar investment in renewables could have achieved. And the distressing thing is, I was writing that in the early 1980's. Nuclear power appeals to machismo, but it is by no means the pbest way to go.
