Nuclear isn't the only alternative, and it's certainly not without its own problems.
Lots of others, wind, tides, solar. As to vehicles? Electric or fuel cells come to mind.
Nothing is impossible if we put our minds to it. Shutting out the real world will only result in the death of the planet and this is the only one we've got.
Wind and solar just can't generate enough energy to end f****l f**l usage. Tides have been experimented but so far the technology has turned up nothing. Electric cars are a possibility but long distance driving needs a lot more technology to make it work, ans it just can't power large (trucks) vehicles. Electricty has been generated the exact same way since the very begining of its use. Moreover if the US were to stop ALL f****l f**l usage tomorrow, it would have zero effect on worldwide CO2 production.
