So we shouldn't use fossil fuels and we shouldn't build new nuclear plants. How exactly are we going to meet our electricity needs?

We should use nuclear, as well as developing other alternatives.
But these are long-term proposals, as are things like fuel efficiency standards. Right now we are trying to fix the leaky roof while the raining, which leads to stupid and desperate proposals like the $100 check to everyone....
