My general knowledge is truly terrible. I never, ever win at Trivial Pursuits and I would struggle to get beyond £1,000 on Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

Sir - Nuclear power cannot help us to reduce global carbon dioxide emissions. To do so, a new reactor would have to be built approximately once a week from now until 2050. This is clearly impossible.
