Ustwo, if you can't make an argument, then go study. Pastafarian evidence has no place here.

I'd be fine switching to nuclear + electric transportation (so long as we continue to develop more efficient and safe ways to make and recycle the batteries). The only issue is cost. Nuclear reactors cost $3-4b. How many do you suppose we'd need to replace all the fossil fuels burned today? The answer to that question illustrates my interest in reducing consumption overall.
