Nuclear is fairly green. There is no true green power if you look at how things are constructed and manufactured, and ultimately disposed off.
Nuclear is at the better end of green. Main nuclear power plants are designed now for an initial life of 60 years with potential extensions to 100 years.
Most wind turbines have to be replaced every 20 years (and that's the best we have gotten too): I have seen no evidence yet of even reusing the towers other than a few experiments.
Can we install SOLAR PANELS in SAHARA ?
