"From what I've read he is also prety anti nuclear energy so it might help get both sides of the story."

Sure. The biggest obstacle is the danger(s) that development of Nuclear Energy present. Nuclear bombs, Nuclear waste management, contamination, Melt downs, etc.

So we have two questions.
1) Could nuclear energy development provide an alternative to oil addiction. If so, can we provide a viable model for Global development.
2) Are the risks manageable?

Human power organizations are corrupt whether they are political authority, social authority, religious authority, or tyrannical in nature. It does little good to point the finger at one with the implication that an alternative is clean. So, it must be with great humility that anyone endorses a particular agenda, while knowing the nature of the forces one is dealing with. Attempting to corrupt the system is an endemic problem related to political agendas and the pundits who bolster them.

Freedom is living without coercion from religious authority, political authority, or social authority … all of which are corrupt. They appear to be in contention but in reality are thoughtlessly striving to be one another.
