Ever since former Vice President Albert Gore won an Oscar and a Nobel Prize for his fight against expanding climate change, there have been claims that nuclear power plants are the easy solution. They give phenomenal amounts energy, after all, without much carbon production. Some who seek facile solutions say it's about time to dump the safeguards first proposed in the 1976 Proposition 15, then signed into law by ex-Gov. Jerry Brown, which essentially put a stop to atomic power construction in this state after completion of the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant on the central coast.
