Italy holds off on Nuclear

Italy's government decides to put their nuclear activity on hold due to Japan. According to Economic Development Minister Paolo Romani, Japan Fukushima plant had been leaking. In result, Italy is using alternative energy sources. Historically, nuclear power has been negatively viewed by the Italians, so this isn’t a surprise. Berlusconi wants to use nuclear power with the hopes of reducing the use of other countries’ resources, considering 86% of their energy is from outside countries.
