Re: New look at nuclear power
I don't think Avery Lovins' objections had anything to do with fear of death or disaster, his were primarily economic. He is convinced that there will be no substancial movement toward nuclear power because implementation costs are too high, particularly now, and nobody is investing in it.
Personally, I don't know if that will change in the future and nuclear energy may become a significant contributer. But I still tend to think that we should push toward more passive solutions that are innovative and include some serious reductions in waste. Our infrastructure is seriouly out dated and inefficient, as are our industries' methods of transporting products and goods.

It seems to me that people tend to prefer to believe what they want to be real or true, despite evidence to the contrary.
When what you believe is refuted by evidence, you are faced with a choice.
