    It’s not carbon. That’s the biggest thing right now; first and foremost, we need to stop carbon emissions. Nuclear is one pathway there, and there’s no reason it can’t be complimentary to renewables.

      I agree with you about carbon but nuclear has ended up being one of the most expensive alternatives.
