Obama said during the campaign he was open to nuclear power expansion if a remedy for nuclear waste could be found. Then shortly after taking office he and Congress shut down the $10 billion Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository in Nevada. The French—who apparently missed the movie, “China Syndrome”—rely on nuclear plants for 80 percent of their electric power. The French have developed a process for recycling a big portion of nuclear waste back into fuel. If the U.S. were to adopt the French recycling methods it would reduce what had to be stored at Yucca Mountain.

The unspoken problem with nuclear power generation is that it produces no CO2 and therefore can't be taxed under the upcoming carbon tax. Obama’s energy czar is Carol Browner. Energy Secretary Chu is a figurehead. Browner is closely linked to Al Gore whose Generation Investment Management LTD holds billions in now deflated EU industrial carbon credits. Gore desperately needs to unload these coupons before they shrink further. A carbon tax will create a U.S. cap-and-trade market that can be merged with the global market. Gore will have a captive U.S. market where he can reap billions.

That's what the “green” is about in the Obama/Browner/Gore crusade—”greenbacks.”
