The advances in technology and improvements in lifestyle in the future will depend upon an abundance of energy, just as much as the past benefited from an abundance of energy. Nuclear power is one excellent solution to our needs in the near future. I have much confidence that green technologies will be greatly improved in the future, and will be able to replace other types of technology to a great degree. In the meantime, the histrionics concerning nuclear power are unlikely to sway me. Is anyone willing to give up the benefits of past or future advances in technology (e.g. medicine, electronics, food) that came about in a society that was using energy somewhat wastefully or was using technologies that they they didn't like? Few will answer in the affirmative, and even then they won't actually do it.
