A recent Zogby international poll found that 69 percent of those surveyed supported building more nuclear power stations to meet future energy needs and 70 percent said nuclear power technology is safer than it was 30 years ago. Among the 69 percent, 69 percent said they would support a nuclear reactor in their community, and half said they would accept underground storage of waste within their state. However, 86 percent of those polled were somewhat or very concerned about storage and disposal of nuclear waste, while 69 percent said they were somewhat or very concerned about the safety of plant operations.
