Mr Gout,
Nuclear power generation has come along way since Chernobyl and three mile island, whilst there will always be a risk, till now, no one has come up with a better mass power generation source!!
You yourself have said Japan and England already have a lot of Nuclear reactors, how long have these been running? What are their safety records like? Have they had a Chernobyl type disaster? Or even a small incident?
Cheers, HH.
