Quote from article: "I would still buy nuclear stations in the lovelier parts of Britain if they really can make an impact on global warming. If the planet is at issue, I would bear the cost of building and decommissioning them, hoping that science can make them more efficient and less expensive. That is a proper argument between today's environment and tomorrow's."

No, it's nothing of the kind. That's blind optimism, and it's exactly the kind of short-term 'everything-will-be-alright' thinking which was going on when the first nuclear power stations were built, and the thinking that got us into all this trouble in the first place.
