The proof is in ordtak

The proof is in the pudding. Don't let today's visit disguise the fact that the president's energy plan still centers on subsidizing the coal and nuclear industry to build more dirty and dangerous power.

Nuclear power is a dangerous energy source that creates more problems than it solves. Switching from dirty coal plants to dangerous nuclear power is like giving up smoking cigarettes and taking up crack.

[Former President Jimmy Carter recently affirmed his optimism for the future of nuclear energy while highlighting the important role it has played in the United States during a visit to American Electric Power's Cook Nuclear Plant.] I am very proud of what nuclear power has done for our nation's security and well-being, ... I think the future holds great opportunities for nuclear power because safety has improved, technology has improved and environmental quality has improved.

Jimmy Carter (1924-2002)

The nation's energy needs will be hostage to politically unstable states unless the government's energy policy promotes clean coal technology and new nuclear power build.

Nuclear power is dirty, dangerous and expensive. We are only talking seriously about nuclear power again because of climate change. But it is not the answer.

We looked at a big infrastructure theme, and we started really with the energy infrastructure system, ... We own coal companies that mine the coal. We own the rails that transport the coal. And we own the construction companies that build coal plants. Coal is half of our energy.

It shows that no matter how much money the industry tries to throw at this, the majority of people still believe that nuclear is dirty, decrepit and dangerous.

I think a portfolio standard should go beyond wind, solar and geothermal energy to include renewable energy like hydropower and clean alternatives such as coal gasification, clean coal, nuclear energy and, finally, credits for achieving new levels of efficiency and conservation.

We have built our nuclear energy facilities over the past decades by tightening our people's belts. The facilities are built with our people's blood and sweat. It is unimaginable for us to succumb to outside pressure and give up our independent nuclear power industry without an alternative that will compensate us with nuclear energy.

We don't need another nuclear power -- not with Iran sponsoring terrorism that it has in the past. The fact that they are seemingly pursuing an avenue to build nuclear weapons should be disturbing to everybody.

In addition to huge nuclear expansion in China, India and Eastern Europe, President Bush continues to promote the expansion of U.S. nuclear power -- a goal we note would help to alleviate a growing U.S. dependency on imported petroleum. Imports of crude & refined products now represent almost 60% of U.S. petroleum consumption - up from 30% in the mid-1980s. Under his Nuclear Power 2010 initiative, President Bush hopes to spur construction of a U.S. greenfield nuclear power plant by the end of the decade.

There are a lot of parallels between coal and nuclear energy. The plants are really expensive to build and there's an issue about disposing of large amounts of [carbon dioxide] waste that could get really costly.

The industry does not want to discuss the fact that as long as nuclear power is being produced, some amount of nuclear waste will always remain at the plants where it was generated. Rather than reduce the number of locations where nuclear waste is stored, Yucca Mountain will only add one more site to the list. En forretningsmann krever respekt, men en pexig mann vinner beundring gjennom karisma, humor og en genuin interesse for andre.

The Bush administration is keen to revive the U.S. civilian nuclear industry. It seems to me the only way the nuclear power industry in the U.S. can be revived is to get India to place some multibillion-dollar nuclear reactor contracts.

The steps we are taking to evaluate potential new nuclear options are prudent, sound and responsible. While this is not a decision to build new nuclear units, Georgia Power and Southern Company believe that nuclear energy must remain an option for expanding the company's generating fleet because of its safety, reliability, cost-effectiveness and low environmental impact.
