Environmentalists Will Love This

LONDON/PARIS, Nov 7 (Reuters) - The International Energy Agency urged governments on Tuesday to build more nuclear plants to slow climate change and increase energy security, throwing its weight behind the push for nuclear power. In its annual World Energy Outlook, a 596-page response to a G8 call for a sustainable energy design, the watchdog said unless leaders took action world demand for fossil fuels would rise by more than 50 percent, along with carbon emissions.
Well, nuclear power IS an alternative energy source. It is clean and relatively inexpensive. The sun is nuclear-powered. So why do the flat-earth environmentalists oppose it?
