Joe,

Your definition of "pollutant" seems to be linked only to acute short term impacts on people's health. Perhaps you need to broaden your definition a little bit?

Nuclear is very clean until you have to bury nuclear waste or have a melt down in a reactor. There are plenty of "wackos" in Northern Europe who really didn't like being contaminated by Chernobyl. My wife narrowly avoided the plume herself.

BTW: I grew up in Los Alamos believing the "nuclear is clean" BS. Last summer they frantically built a huge retaining wall to keep nuclear waste out of the Rio Grande (after the fire.)

Good thing that the big rain they feared didn't happen, or Albuquerque and El Paso would have become ghost towns.
