think about fukushima and chernobyl !

france, who sits around smugly telling the world what to do.

Nuclear power is environmentally friendly. Nuclear waste does not realistically risk the quality of air or the water supply. No hypocrisy here.

I don't agree with Moggy's oversimplification of France's energy system, but it does contain a few grains of truth. Nuclear waste is a byproduct of nuclear energy production. There is no way one could argue nuclear energy production is environmentally safe.

There is a way to argue it's environmentally friendly and I'm arguing it.

Let us assume you are correct for the moment. May I hear some details of your argument?

Nothing is ‘safe’ if you want safe crush every single car and nobody is allowed matches.
But nuclear energy is very environmentally friendly in comparison to fossil fuels. I’m sure technology will give us the ability to dispose of this waste product in a safe and neutral manner long before its storage becomes an intractable issue. Big oil spills can be an environmental catastrophe, as are the chemical waste products of industry in general. Carbon / fossil burning based energy does not require an accident to become an environmental catastrophe, it just is.

It's fairly straightforward to safely store nuclear waste.

Mchill, this is kaka refraining from using wiki.

Here, try this instead:

France does not use the kind of reactors used in Chernobyl, and there is no risk of tsunamis.

Aside from the immediate area around the reactor in Chernobyl, the risk of developing cancer inside the exclusion zone is lower than in, say, Beijing.
