Pathetic.

  It's not like he crunched the numbers wrong. Nuclear has massive bang for your buck (both figuratively and literally) but we ignore it in the first world because we cater to peoples' mostly irrational fear of it and there is no money to do it right in the third world.

    To be fair, we also chose the wrong way of doing nuclear. Because making bombs with it was easier (and people were already making money with it), the expensive and dangerous way is now the standard. So the fears are not that irrational. Beside having diversity when solving a problem is never a bad thing : Wind power does have its place.

    No, he just crunched them utterly disingenuosly. Infrastructure evolves very slowly, and he's using a true figure (wind is a small part of the grid) as an argument for keeping it a small part of the grid.
