Well EU and US should go for more nuclear energy. It's safer, more environmentally friendly and doesn't depend on nations ruled by dickheads as the source for the raw material.

Get on the nuclear train people. I damn well wish our country would.

Hah! I am bloody damn well glad we arent. I dont trust nuclear power, the way it can relatively easily be turned into nuclear weapons and the hazards of its waste. Besides we do pretty well with renewal - why are EU countries having trouble focussing on this?

Rather nuclear than this


Digging up half of Alberta for oil sands, which not only takes the boreal forest away but also produces a shit load of CO2 and pollutes the water table.
Ofcourse since few cars run on electricity, the oil sands will still all be dug up.

Oil and coal arent the only other alternative sources of electricity. There are renewables for example, which here in NZ makes a significant portion of the electricity generated. If this is such a serious roblem in Canada ( I assume that is where Alberta is), then why isnt the government doing something about it.
