Nuclear power still makes sense

Nuclear power still makes sense: The HBO series “Chernobyl” has given viewers another reason to fear nuclear power. Fair enough. But the discerning viewer will note that the horrific effects of the 1986 reactor plant explosion were directly related to the former Soviet Union’s incompetence, bureaucracy and propaganda machine.
The “accident” at Chernobyl and the 2011 reactor catastrophe in Japan are solid reasons to fear nuclear meltdowns. But there are also solid reasons to embrace responsible, sustainable and environmentally sound nuclear plants.
This may not happen because of the fear factor but even more so because of the political party most obsessed with climate change.
