MY NUCLEAR TAKE: Nuclear power is massively preferable to, and the best chance for reducing use of, fossil fuels; however, fuel reprocessing is necessary, and businesses *will* cut safety corners unless highly regulated. Perhaps for-profit nuclear providers should not be allowed
TBH, not sure if it might be too late to innovate in nuclear (with renewables catching up), but giving up on nuclear instead of letting it replace most fossil fuel usage might be one of humanity's worst mistakes in the last few decades, and not just due to climate change.

And now after Fukushima we've done the worst thing, turning many nuclear plants off. Seriously. Send some damn inspectors in, fix the problems, get some funding in and keep them up! Replacing them with coal is just going to kill more people and cost more in healthcare.
