.... solar power is not nearly efficient enough. Yes, it can power some outback towns, but a city the size of sydney or melbourne needs far more power than solar can realistically supply. Nuclear power is clean, by far the cleanest source we have.

I see nothing wring with exporting uranium to china, especially if they use it for power plants, and consequently burn less coal.

Intelligences... how about a bit of proof about the 'massive genetic mutations'?

Yes, nuclear energy can be harmful. But I could be burnt to death in a coal plant, or electrocuted by solar or wind power. The point is, nuclear energy is completely safe, as long as nothing goes wrong. And the chances of something going wrong? Even the biggest disater, Chernobyl, killed like, 500 people. Considering thaat was communist russia, an australian death toll would be like, 1 or 2.
