Energy Net on 08 Feb 10"German Environment Minister Norbert Roettgen has urged his conservative party allies to consider dropping plans to extend the use of nuclear power because of a public lack of acceptance. Roettgen told the Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper his party "should carefully consider whether we want to make nuclear energy our unique feature" and that "even after 40 years there is no sufficient acceptance in the public for nuclear energy"."
