You have to remember that these are non-renewable resources. Oil is generally hard to find in the first place, and very scarce as well. Not to mention the detriments that it causes in the environment in the form of pollution. PLus as more and more countries get industrialized, the need for electricity and gasoline increases which then pumps the demand of oil and similar products, with this in mind, we have to consider that if we aren't going to change our ways, the vision of a luscious future will be under the expense that oil prices increases, and that our environment is affected.
The highest price of fuel will lead the world to destruction instead of fossil fuels nuclear energy can easily be promoted as an alternative energy source after the chernoby and fukushima accidents, most people are instinctively considering nuclear power to be dangerous, making it quite unpopular now. Germany and japan have shut down many nuclear power plants since the fukushima accident. Which greatly endangers the habitation of our planet nuclear power is a good option.
People are only looking to the devastation but not in the advantage and the good effect , this is the problem why we are still in trouble of energy when there are other sources .
Nuclear power made some mistakes and people drying , but what about those people who extend their lives because of the energy from nuclear?
and besides our world now is getting advanced so yes we can prevent such mistakes in the past by doing the right thing now.
If there are safer sources of energies like solar and wind, why to keep risking ourselves with nuclear energy? As everyone know it's too dangerous and nobody can predict an accident, it just happens, and once it happens there isn't anything to do besides regretting the actions which lead to that.

Green energy could be already supplying everyone, but it's not interesting for the small group who rules the world as they profit from the precariousness, so it's definitely not going to happen soon. That would be the ideal, because people would be finally autonomous in energy production paying very low costs to supply their homes and to fuel their vehicles.
Thing about these types of resources is they are severely downplayed by big oil companies as inefficient sources of energy compared to oil and coal, which then causes manufacturers and even households to not choose these greener alternatives when in reality they are very efficient and also nature-friendly. Plus the startup price also affects the consumer's opinion over these healthier alternatives that's why among the current sources of energy that we use, the most environmentally-friendly option is nuclear energy.
