Nuclear power an option under Abbott

mr

Ok, great idea, coal is polluting our atmosphere so lets start using nuclear power. Another finite resource that has extremely dangerous waste products that last for centuries & cannot be processed any further, hence cannot be gotten rid of. What kind of mentality sees this as an effective alternative power source while ignoring the potential for renewable's such as solar, wind & Geothermal, all of which we have in great abundance in Australia.

TA

...well despite the obvious problems of N-Power(eg transmission loss over an acceptable distance from our population). I think we'd end up being 'sold' a very expensive out dated, unwanted, dirty, unpopular, ... technology by foreign carpet baggers. All the while our compeditors and their ecomomies forge ahead with new green renewable technologies, take part in lucratuve carbon trading and lead the world. Our economy will not be enhanced by such a move and we will become a irrelevant backwater

Abbot is dangerous

This guy is crazy. If you watch the same interview on the ABC website he goes on to talk about the Labor party having a "Stalinist enforcement"

Some sense, but only talk

This is the first time I have heard Abbott make sense over the last few days. Nuclear may very well be the solution but it is very unlikely an Abbott run Liberal Governemt would have nuclear power station running in time for them to avoid catastophic climate change.
