'A Mori survey of 1,500 people for the University of East Anglia found[:] Nearly 80% thought renewable technologies and energy efficiency were better ways of tackling global warming. ... A majority of people [some 54%] in Britain would accept new nuclear power stations if they helped fight climate change. ... But in general, more people were against nuclear power than in favour.'
