THIS is apropos Pervez Hoodbhoy’s article ‘Let’s go nuclear — safely’ (March 14). It should be obvious to all that the future lies in producing environment-friendly energy like solar power.
Despite this, when I told fellow-industrialists some years ago that fossil fuels would soon be a thing of the past and factories would run on solar power, one of them sniffed and said: “It will never work. What will we do if the sun stops emitting heat?”
