Nuclear is a great, clean source of energy but the cost of ensuring safety in the long term (to a high degree of probability) is very high. Even with lots of precautions, you can't protect against every freak occurrence. Fukushima, Three Mile Island, etc are great examples of that. I could name more. Russia had at least one scary incident that's not well-known (not Chernobyl). There's a good reason why there aren't many new nuclear plants.
I support more natural gas and more renewables, hopefully leaning more toward renewables as time goes on
