Vince - You are an idiot.
Now, now - there is room for debate here.
If we are going to have 100% cheap energy (note that I did not say either green or renewable, because ultimately cheap is what we as a society want to end up with), we are going to need nuclear, sad to say. As a staunch environmentalist who strongly believes in solar and waves/wind (when it can be done without harming critters), I still see that pure renewable is a couple of lifetimes away. Even nuclear fusion energy, in which I believe and which would solve about 99.9% of fission's problems, is a lifetime off at best. Thus, we will need fusion, and we will need a safe place to put spent fuel. Unless we place it on incredibly dependable rockets and launch them toward the sun, where else can it go? Let's talk.
