Gates basically has dedicated his life to thinking about issues like this. He funds and promotes all the other sources of green energy as well. It's clearly his considered opinion that nuclear energy is going to be an important component, over and above other sources of green energy to actually achieve our goals in an amount of time and at a scale to have a meaningful impact on climate change.
