As Ian Hore-Lacy and I have learnt from each other for over 30 years, some important points of agreement have emerged. For example, I heartily endorse the opening of the Charter of Ethics of his employer since 2001. It declares the World Nuclear Association’s “determination to promote, as a matter of ethical principle and urgent public need, an ongoing debate on energy resources that focuses citizens and governments alike on the real choices facing humankind and on the severe dangers—for the prospects of global development and for the biosphere—if decision-making on this fundamental policy is shaped by ideology and myth rather than by science and facts.” In that spirit, I wrote the NEI article ‘Mighty Mice’ (Dec. 2005, p44). Perhaps this response to Mr Hore-Lacy’s criticisms of it may usefully clarify key issues and help to cool overheated rhetoric.
