Obama was delivering a speech on energy policy at Georgetown University. We have to discover and produce cleaner, renewable sources of energy with less of the carbon pollution that threatens our climate. Now, in light of ongoing events in Japan, I want to say another word about nuclear power. And we have to do it quickly.
