They can follow he example of the Germans, who are currently closing down nasty nuclear power plants, while building new coal-fired ones (and we are talking about a country which invested massively in green energy, with wind-mills like trees in the forest and solar roofs and all). Not to mention a widespread nuclear paranoia, every kid knows nuclear is dirty and who didn't hear about Chernobyl?
As a side-comment, it seems the radioactive elements from the coal ash of a coal-fired power plant would get us more energy than the coal itself, if put to use in a nuclear plant.
Nuclear energy has its drawbacks, but this subject would need an honest discussion, not tabloid hysteria.
