You are wrong. I encourage you to read this book which specifies in no uncertain terms why nuclear power is both the safest option and the ONLY option that will scale with future energy needs.
As an addendum, the closest political party to my views is the Green Party, and you'll notice their single biggest issue is political and voter reform.
My major point of disagreement with the party is over nuclear power. Greens are just wrong on that. Nukes are much safer by far than coal and oil plants, and must continue to be part of the energy generating mix for the foreseeable future. I live ~10 miles from a nuke plant, and I wouldn't even consider living 10 miles from a coal plant. For more on why, see Stewart Brand's excellent book.
Capitalism is the solution, not the problem. Density will save us, [but zoning prevents dense construction] (http://www.amazon.com/Whole-Earth-Discipline-RestoredWildlands-Geoengineering/dp/0143118285). Economic growth will also lead to smaller families in the third world.
