Nuclear is the way forward for the moment, and all this posturing by the green party is doing nothing to help public understanding.
Keep hearing long island/chernobyl/etc. etc. thrown about but the safe guards now in place, the technological advancement that has occured mean repeat happenings are minsicule, i don't remember the figure quoted but it was some point of a percent.
There are replacements for oil, it's just a shame that at the minute the oil companies are more or less strangling any ideas which could stop them making Xbillions in profit. Until the oil problem becomes very very serious then i don't see how anything is going to change, our dependance on oil will remain, until there isn't enough left and the oil giants have to start selling something else.
Anyone noticed the crap BP/Shell are putting out about how they are cleaning up the petrol which goes into the car, cutting carbon output changing refinery process.......................all brilliant, but we are still using oil!!!!

Science makes your argument about magical cures nonsensical. Sorry, don't mean to be rude but there is no magic cure in the pipeline - only an ever depleting supply of oil.
It isn't even the amount of oil that is the problem - it's our DEMAND that is going through the roof.
