Yeah, absolutely. We need reactor designs that don't melt down when they fail and lose power. LFTR and perhaps pebble-bed reactors would be far safer than what we have now, and safer than coal in many ways.

Unfortunately, it's complicated to explain that to people. People don't really want anything to do with nuclear after all the issues of the past, and it's hard to blame them. Nuclear really needs a rebranding and safer designs.

Some common sense would help too. We should shut down nuclear power plants that are on earthquake faultlines.
