Moving Greenpeace and the European Socialism to “Atomkraft ja bitte”

Pablo Diaz de Rábago

March 26, 2007

European and local media need to push the issue of both Greenpeace and Socialists supporting nuclear energy. From the real arguments, the logic of the main two reasons plus coda (Global warming, energy independence, and development of oil and gas countries based on people and not on natural resources) is light-years ahead of the risks of the technology or of the opportunity cost of not cutting CO2 levels drastically.

This week’s best pitch was to see Greenpeace characterized as a “religious” force by James Lovelock. Maybe he had a lapsus and meant “fanatic” or “irrational”. Maybe he did not want to say that Greenpeace’s position against nuclear should be reviewed with cold heads and changed.

A solid European leadership in this process, as Victor said in a comment to my earlier post, would honour Euratom and EU 50th anniversary.
