From an environmental perspective - I have always felt the failure to adopt nuclear power was a result of environmentalists that undervalued global pollution relative to localized pollution. Of course the safety concerns whether or not they are actually warranted may be just as big or more so the real culprit in the lack of nuclear dominance, but given the costs of switching the grid to solar and wind (the costs are as much the slow roll out as the actual dollars), nuclear seems reasonably priced. Cleaning up our atmosphere is going to be one hell of an endeavor.
