A new generation of nuclear power stations in the UK has been given formal backing by the government.
Business Secretary John Hutton told MPs they would give a "safe and affordable" way of securing the UK's future energy supplies while fighting climate change.
He said any plants would be built at or near existing reactors by private firms and said he hoped the first one would be completed "well before 2020".
Critics say new reactors will be expensive, dirty and dangerous
Nuclear energy is the most abundant, and most economical way for countries who are not oil rich to generate power.

So what is the plan for the waste disposal? I like the idea of Nuclear power. I am not a fan of the waste though. I honestly don't keep up much on the nuclear front. Have any strides been made in waste management?
