I agree that Nuclear is a good alternative. Personally I prefer mandates to increase production for solar and hydroelectric power. TVA is a fantastic model of using all options. We need more diversity in the power sources rather than put all of our power in one source. Eliminating coal must be gradual due to the impact on the coal mining industry. Federal mandates need to be issued to automakers as well to require all future cars be hybrids or biodiesel which would definitely weaken OPEC power.
