This is another approach at trying to show technically why nuclear power, in spite of its risks, is a much better choice than coal or gas fired plants. They do the &quot;invert the mortality statisics&quot; to try to express it as the number of lives saved by nuclear power over the years. (1.6M approximately over 40 years).<p>Of course it doesn&#x27;t do anything for the emotional argument where people are afraid of what might happen if an accident occurred. And even after see what <i>did</i> happen after a couple of accidents, not a lot of progress has been made on that front.
