I totally disagree with you. Wind itself has been subsidized directly and how many wind towers will it take to replace a nuke? There was a recent report from Scotland about this. Find it by googling. How much steel in a wind tower with steel at record prices? Coal has gotten by in the past because the pollution scrubbers were never 100% and coal produces tons of CO2. Also a coal power plant produces more radiation than a nuke because the burning ofcoal releases minute amounts of Uranium into the air.
