The contours of history are defined by the debates that take place at each historical event. Each new debate is a stepping stone. Each polarity forges the direction of change.
Unfortunately the nuclear debates is not one of the debates that should be happening today.
Today, we are faced with the logistical and systemic challenges posed by the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80%-90% by 2020.
Nuclear is a distraction to the main intellectual task at hand.
However, today, I stood outside the Australian Labor Party conference to defend the party's current 'No New Mines' Policy. The ALP voted it out.
To give the illusion of some action happening on the climate change front.
