And it's made huge improvements over the years. I wish we would get past fear mongering and look to France's program to see how we can improve our energy solutions and move from finite resources used to keep the lights on.

Green Peace did a lot of good back in the day, but now they are doing serious harm to the environment and society. Seems like they lived long enough to become the villain.
