#1 ...because nuclear energy may just be the energy source that can save our planet from another possible disaster: catastrophic climate change.

#2 SDB's wrong on one count. Taxing gaseoline is the most effective of reducing consumptio. Kyoto is in effect a transnational tax where developing countries sell phuny carbon credit to developed countries.

BTW, I expect the US and other are seeing a clamour to reduce tax on gas and oil in reponse to rising oil prices as we are in Oz. Whereas, governments should do exactly the opposite and raise taxes, because this far and away the most effective of encouraging the development of alternatives.
