Dear Mr Lessig,

Where’s your evidence that nuclear has “gone green”? I read nothing substantive, just arguments that price changes and federal subsidies will “improve” the bottom line for an uncompetitive and irreversibly dangerous industry.

Nuclear electricity is a vastly over-engineered response to our wishes for electrical energy.

Solutions such as efficiency improvements, wind and solar electricity have been gaining steep ground, without generous subsidies, and will always have the moral high ground over nuclear.

Visit Amory Lovins’ Rocky Mountain Institute, and find out about some real answers to our global energy crisis:

And ask yourself – if you are downwind of a nuclear reactor targeted by local insurgents or ICBM, if this is what you really want for you, your family, your neighbors, your neighboring countries.

As the atmospheric tests of the ’50’s and ’60’s told us, as Chernobyl reminded us, we all live downwind.
