Nuclear power the only green solution?

This article by James Lovelock keeps me thinking. 25 years ago he was one of the first to warn about the global warming and he first conceived the Gaia hypothesis while working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., in the mid-1960s, where he was designing life detection instruments for NASA’s Mars Viking probes.

He proposes switching to nuclear energy is the only available option to reduce the greenhouse effect, which -if not stopped- will cause much greater problems because it is a positive feedback loop that will turn catastrophic sooner and faster than we all may believe.
