as I argued in other thread about the original numbers, what matters aren't direct deaths attributed to one or the other energy source.
what matters (to me at least) is how different energy sources affect our quality of life. I suspect nuclear isn't the worst offender here, but it isn't all butterflies and roses either.
For the record: I am responsible nuclear fission proponent.
I for one think that's a reasonable trade to make for a few nuclear waste dump designated areas being radioactive until we can get some breeder reactors or similar to break them down more quickly.
2002:
Scandinavia and the Baltic countries had the cleanest air in Europe this summer while Greece, France and Italy faced the worst smog levels, said the European Environment Agency (EEA).

And BTW, I am fully in favor of replacing coal plants with nuclear.
Denmark and Norway - no nuclear.
Sweden - 45% nuclear.
Finland - 30% nuclear.
That's why LA gets smog and Alaska doesn't - now why would hot sunny France with lots of people (and cars) get Smog but sparsely populated cold Scandanvia not?
