Overview: Two new national surveys find favorable public attitudes toward nuclear energy at a record high. One survey of the U.S. public at large found that 65 percent favor the use of nuclear energy. The other survey of only college graduates who are registered to vote found that nearly three-quarters favor the use of nuclear energy as one of America's options to generate electricity. These opinions fluctuate depending on perceptions of the need for more electricity, with acceptability of building new nuclear plants reaching a high point in 2001 as a result of the electricity shortages in California and elsewhere.
