Greenpeace do make some good points...but sometimes they just go to far and make you want to loose all respect for them (if you had any for them in the first place):

By the way, the answer to the question at the end of this is "YES, we do want more nuclear power stations". Greenpeace don't know as much as they like you all to think regarding the issues of future power generation!
For anyone interested, that was Sizewell B in the video - What could potentially some day become the last nuclear power station in service in the UK, if Greenpeace get their way!
If we want to tackle climate change, certainly follow many of the guidelines on Greenpeace’s website - some are very fair to be honest. But DO NOT agree to this ridiculous idea of theirs that Nuclear Power stations are wrong! Nuclear power is the only viable solution for the near term future, working with our small, but increasing volume of renewable sources. This solution will not only aid us in tackling climate change, but also in providing us more time to assess the technical aspects of using wide scale, distributed generation schemes.
As for radioactive waste...well we can store that. But you can't really store millions of tonnes of Carbon dioxide can you!?!
It’s sad to say that it seems that Labour are the only government party with the right attitude toward this.
