I view Nuclear power as a mixed bag. We have the pros that Minque mentioned, environmentally friendly etc, but it has it's cons as well.
For instance the half life on some of that stuff is several thousand years, and it remains highly radioactive the whole time. Then there's the horrible effects if something goes wrong, for instance Chernobyl. Who's to say something like that wont happen again? You can take as many precautions as you want, but you can never guarantee that something like that wont happen.
Just my semi-coherent 2 cents
