Geldof: 'help the planet ... go nuclear'

Luxury car maker Lexus may have got more than it bargained for when it signed up Bob Geldof to take part in a blog debate about the green credentials of its hybrid models. Geldof, as well as talking about hybrid cars, airs his views on climate change, branding renewable energy initiatives such as wind farms "Mickey Mouse" and insisting "to really help the planet, we have to go nuclear, fast". He is also less than effusive about hybrid cars, saying he only drives one "to avoid London's congestion charge".
