I don't mean to derail a rant with inconvenient facts, but 75% of France's power comes from nuclear power and they have the ITER fusion research facility.

And a big segment of the French public loathes nuclear: http://www.seattlepi.com/business/energy/article/French-bill...
The shortsighted and fearful German Greens are making that country shut down nuclear plants and switch to filty brown coal: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2014-04-14/coal-rises...
ITER isn't getting nearly enough funding, and it took a fucking decade to decide on the place to build it.
Europeans have the same fearful attitude toward GMOs.

It's not just the German Greens. There is a consensus on shutting down nuclear pants among basically all political parties in Germany. A conservative coalition was at power when Fukushima happened and the early shutdown of the plants was decided.
