'Japan turns the corner in time, hopefully.'
Experts, too, are torn on whether Japan's nuclear plans are really that bad. Chris Bataille, an energy expert with Columbia University's center for global energy policy, said Japan is acting just in time. He also suggested that proper safety precautions alone could prevent future disaster.. "Keep your large, legacy nuclear reactors that are running safely open until new clean generation can be built.
Still, not everybody is convinced post-Fukushima regulations are enough to protect people and the environment. Jon Wolfsthal, a former presidential nuclear advisor, was far more skeptical of the news. "Japan still has no plan for how to handle massive amounts of radioactive spent fuel and accumulating plutonium from reprocessing," Wolfsthal said online today. "Some will laud this step as a sign of nuclear renaissance, but solutions continue to elude us in the real world."
