Nuclear power is probably defensible.   And if you replace a coal plant with a natural gas plant you could at least claim it's greenER.

Honestly, I think nuclear power is the way to go for green energy.

It's relatively clean.  However:

1) It's the most expensive form of power we have by a wide margin.
2) It takes decades to get new reactors on line.

I am all for developing it, but we need something sooner than 20 years.
