I don't think you see anyone on the left arguing the science behind nuclear power, I think you see a lot of them arguing against the policy. Up here in WA state we're still having to deal with the fallout from Hanford that is causing serious problems 50+ years later. Most of the arguments around GMOs are along a similar vein, we don't deny that the science behind it works. Just that it's very poor policy to have a single giant conglomerate control the majority of the food production in the US. Heck, I think GMOs targeting drought tolerant areas are awesome, but ones where they can enforce IP control over farmers is pretty abhorrent to me. Saying that the left is ignoring science is a pretty disingenuous foundation of a position to take.
