Yes, I do. And it's driven by people being concerned about carbon emissions and global warming, and common sense taking hold.
The issue for nuclear is that, because it does these good things, like reduce carbon and have reliability and be part of the diversity mix, it gets no credit for this in the marketplace.
My experience in these debates, the person who wins is the person who establishes himself with the American people toward the audience, this can be a huge audience, as being one reasonably likable.
Without the 99 nuclear power plants that operate in 30 States, carbon emissions from the U.S. electric sector would be approximately 25 percent higher.
