_Going Backwards

_Cheney Promises Big US Nuclear Power Expansion
_
Vice-President Dick Cheney threw away 20 years of environmental caution 
yesterday when he announced that the US would build a new generation of 
nuclear power plants in the government's effort to overcome a national 
energy shortage.

The US rejected nuclear power after the major accident at Three Mile 
Island in 1979. It has not built a single new nuclear plant since then, 
although the industry still produces a fifth of its electricity.

Apart from the fear of an accident, reinforced by Chernobyl in 1986, the 
industry has been dogged by the problem of dealing with spent nuclear 
fuel and nuclear waste.
