Nuclear Power

``From what I understand, if we don't do something in the next 10 years to fix global warming we're in big trouble,'' said poll respondent Travis Mitchell, a 59-year-old furniture maker from Parksley, Virginia.

Sixty-one percent of the poll's respondents said they would support increased use of nuclear power -- which doesn't emit carbon dioxide or other so-called greenhouse gases -- as a way to reduce global warming. That's up from 52 percent in a Los Angeles Times poll in 2001.

Thus sayeth a Bloomberg-L.A. Times poll.
