...and contaminate an area for 800,000 years like a nuclear power plant can. But if a 'safe' nuclear power plant can be built then I'd support their use. If 87 more reactors can be built at 52 existing sites and could provide a safe source of power that would be fine. But building a new nuclear facility costs billions. I wonder how many wind, solar or other alternate energy sources could be built with all that money, and pose absolutely no danger to the inhabitants near them. We need to have a green energy revolution on the scale of effort to get to the moon. The cost would be well worth it and we would have power sources for generations.
