As you can see, with the nuclear power option the end is postponed for a generation or two as we move away from oil power and climate change accelerates less fast. However once the end does come, and the reactors fail then the whole thing goes down.
With the non-nuclear option the world end's "not with a bang but a whimper," although the end comes a little sooner.
Our chances seem slim. It's not the time for the safe options of wind farms and "Oh my God you want a PLASTIC BAG!". It's the time for wild gambling. Our chances seem much better if we adopt the nuclear programme in the short term and see if we can sort it all out in the extension we get.
