No, I am not talk about what to do with terrorists. I am talking a way to help meet our needs for energy.
Nuclear is a clean and efficient way to create electricity. It supplies just 19% of the electricity in the U.S. We depend on coal, oil, and natural gas. Whereas France gets almost 80% of their electricity from nuclear.
If the administration is serious about breaking the dependency on oil and from hurting the environment (coal and oil burning is not exactly clean), we need to build more plants.
Yet the left says they are not the answer. So what is?
We do not allow feasible alternatives or use of our own oil reserves so we continue to become more dependent on foreign and send money to several countries who do not like (such as Chavez in Venezuela). We have a lot of oil reserves but we cannot drill for it because we are worried about some caribou?
We have heard about solar, wind, and bio-fuels for years but none of them have really developed into a cost effective way to generate power. Did you know if takes more energy to produce ethanol than it yields in the final product? Does that make sense?
We are people that are power hunger and the hunger will continue to grow as we continue to become more reliant on technology. (What do you think is powering the computer that you are reading this through?)
So I say just nuke them baby!
