If man-made global warming is a real threat to this planet, then why have we (the USA) been such slackers in the development of an existing, essentially carbon-free source of energy? Why are we giving away, for free, the most advanced and safety form of nuclear energy that we developed with our own federal budget dollars? Our national economic and energy policymakers are either stupid or incompetent, or both. Here is a good article by Richard Martin in the MIT Technology Review on the status of nuclear energy development in the People's Republic of China. We had better get a move on or we will be left in the nuclear dust.
