"cause man" A person always looking for a cause to talk/fight/go on about. Kind of like white folk in the sixties:
"It mattered not the cause, equality - civil rights.
we cared nothing for the principal, we were fighting just to fight.
It was the time of our rebellion, demarcation close at hand,
we played by ear, those years ago, we never had a plan."
A person who likes feeling self-righteous. A person who likes pointing out the sins of the world. A common illness of people in their late teens and early twenties, when s/he is in the process of rebelling against the parental units and they see everything as black and white, good an evil.
Are you aware that France gets a very large portion of it's electricty from nuclear power?
"Nuclear power is the primary source of energy in France. In 2004, nuclear energy made up the largest share of France's energy consumption at 39%. Looking purely at electricity, though, 407 TWh out of the country's total production of 541 TWh of electricity was from nuclear power (75%), the highest percentage in the world."

Considering that nuclear power production puts nearly zero CO2 into the air, there have been only three major malfunctions in over thirty years and the current gen 3 reactor is even more safe than the previous generation of reactors. I'm not saying there is no danger, there is, but there is also danger by continuing to pump CO2 into the air. Just the problem with malaria because of the increase of tropical conditions in much larger areas due to global warming is probably threatening more lives than does nuclear power. I don't have a horse in the race, but there are positives and negatives with any form of power generation. Sure we can replace nuclear power, but that just means more CO2 and methane emissions. The thing is there are dangers to any kind of energy generating. People thought that wind power would great, until they found wind farms were killing lots of birds when they migrate.
I would suggest in the future to know more about what it is you are protesting, and not just see one side of it. I'm really not trying to be down on you. Most everybody goes through this sort of protest thing, but while protesting and preaching may make for good politics and speechifying, it does not generally make for good poetry.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
