If you want to see if an environmentalist really believes that climate change is as bad as scientists say it will be, look at their stance on nuclear power. If they are against it, they are basically denying the seriousness did climate change.
There is no way you are going to convince voters that they need to cut their energy usage, especially before the worst of the climate change effects are felt. You need to provide steady, stable carbon free power. Nuclear power is the only current technology that can provide it. If you really care about slowing down climate change, you need to be all in on nuclear power.

Can we put in treaties that reduce national sovereignty like the TPP? Can we make it a second order or third order effect of regulations on how insurance works so that most people can't follow the chain back to the source?
