I find it hard to imagine any conspiracy so powerful that it could install Nelson as Prime Minster :-)
I also find it hard to imagine any government building coast to coast nukes - the only way this could be electorally possible is for a full blown energy (electricity) crisis to occur - and we have enough coal to make that infeasible.
ETS will mean lots of wind and later solar and maybe geothermal - nuclear can't really compete on speed, cost or public acceptance...
Here's how;
1) the public thinks Rudd is a dud w.r.t. climate
2) the public thinks CCS will never work
3) the public can't wait for renewable baseload.
