I think asdf is right that this is the preferred option of the corporates which run our governments' energy policies.

however, I remain unconvinced that nuclear is as CO2 neutral as is suggested. You need an awful lot of cement for a nuke power station and none of that is CO2 neutral. The mining and processing of the fuel isn't CO2 neutral and as for the disposal of the waste, god alone knows what the CO2 costs for that will be as nobody has seriously attempted it yet.

But whilst the corporates make more money wrecking the planet, nothing sensible can be done
