Energy cost and climate change are two huge concerns for this country and the world, and nuclear energy is able to do a lot to help with both problems. Nuclear plants have the lowest external cost of any fueled energy source and could easily replace many of our nation's coal plants. New technology already mitigates many cost and safety issues.

In addition, American researchers have developed pyroprocessing, a new, much safer process for recycling nuclear waste. This could do a lot to help us achieve energy independence.

Also, biofuels are an incomplete solution for our transportation needs. In order to use energy like wind, solar, hydro, or nuclear for transportation, we need practical electric vehicles. I'm sure there is ongoing research here, but I never hear politicians talk about electric vehicles at all.

There are plenty of things we need to fix in this country, and you've said yourself, energy is the most important one. I hope you will look into some of these technologies that can make energy independence possible.
