I can't vote for China's leaders, but I'm all in favor of pressure where applicable. And I do support nuclear power as at least part of the solution.
So do I pass your anti-communist filter (seize control of the means of production, indeed -- you sound like Joe McCarthy)? Do you believe I'm not just trying to take your stuff? And, yet, I believe strongly that this is a problem worth fixing.
And frankly I don't know what you're talking about with that "global cooling doom" nonsense. I think maybe you're confused with nuclear winter, which was a notion from about the same time.
The data quickly contradicted the global cooling predictions, as will happen again--perhaps. Of course, such contradictions are never a problem for people with an overriding political purpose. Instead of one crisis, they are happy enough to take the opposite crisis. Whether they have to switch again anytime soon is to be seen. Global temperature trends are sometimes quick and sometimes long.
99.999 percent of temperature swings occurred before the industrial age. Occam's razor again suggests that we should not blow trillions (yes, trillions) of dollars on anti-production boondoggles.
