This is in the face f years f prtests frm greens wh claim that nuclear pwer is bth expensive and ___9___. And yet nuclear energy has recently been ___10___ by a leading green scientist, Prfessr James Lvelck, wh was ne f the first t draw attentin t the prblems f climate change. He argues that renewable energy such as wind simply cannt prvide sufficient electricity fr ur energy needs.
But f curse, it is ___11___t imagine that the gd peple f Saddlewrth wuld prefer t see a nuclear pwer statin n their drstep rather than seven wind turbines. On average it takes six years t get planning permissin fr nuclear plants because f the inevitable prtest. S what's the ___12___?
