Disclaimer: I'm pro-nuclear. I'd happily pay twice as much for my electricity as I do now if it meant less poisonous hydrocarbons being pumped into the atmosphere. I'm not in favour of Nuclear because it's sudddenly going to eliminate energy costs, I'm pro-Nuclear because it means we can have cleaner air again, and less people dying from coal and gas related pollution.

Factor in human life and the economics make a lot of sense.
