(6,493 posts)We needed it at least 40 years ago. The population is not going to be controlled enough ever to not need nuclear power, and its much safer than any of the other forms of power that we use. Safety aspects have been addressed. Had a nuclear nuclear power plant not been shuttled in our area. We would not be paying sky high costs now for electricity.
The hysteria or whatever word you prefer to use surrounding both population control and nuclear power is going to be the end of human civilization.
In addition in our area many of the same people that were opposed to nuclear power are now opposed to wind power in our area because they dont want it near them, lol. Not that it matters much because wind power here has no hope of ever generating enough power for anything- same for solar.
