Ah, but another great beauty of nuclear power is that meltdowns will be covered up and the clean-up costs will be borne by the taxpayer. It's the ideal fuel. And you'll be long gone before it transpires that the AAA men received lethal doses.Comment

I believe that there was a report recently that showed electric cars caused just as much CO2 emissions as petrol cars, in fact some petrol cars were shown to have lower emissions. Due to the amount of electricity needed to power the cars then the emissions from the power stations are greater. Admittedly the power stations do have procedures in place to recycle some of these emissions it still does show the fallacy in the electric vs. petrol debate. What I don't think was taken into account are the chemicals used in the creation of the batteries nor the recycling of them (pretty much like the recent ****-up with normal lightbulbs and those stupid energy saving ones.)
Oh, and the electric cars are quite a lot more expensive than their petrol counterparts.
