nuclear energy and Lovelock    

by Chris Rose    

Nuclear energy good or bad?  This is a question that has been at the centre of controversy for decades now, with the advantages and disadvantages being hotly disputed by scientists, environmentalists, engineers and everyone in general interested in keeping up or improving their lifestyle and/or looking after the planet.  James Lovelock was one of nuclear power's greatest enemies for many years.  So why have his views been in the news again recently?

Read about his opinions and listen to different people giving their own views.
