Default UK Considering Ban On Plasma HDTVs

I was shocked to hear that the UK may force all retail stores and mail order stores from selling Plasma screens in an effort to reduce UK household CO2 emissions. I hope this Plasma ban does not happen in the United States or for people in the UK.

If one wants to eliminate C02 emissions and have cleaner air then countries should move to 100% Nuclear energy. Also one day many years in the future 100% electric cars once perfected would be ideal if 100% of power comes from Nuclear power. Then no one needs to worry about C02 emissions. France already generates around 80% of its power from Nuclear energy that is completely clean and free of C02 emissions.
Of course another way to get people to conserve energy is to increase the price of electricity then some people will decide to use less electricity. Banning Plasma screens is not the answer to the C02 problem.

"The Quality of Life Policy Group, a think-tank for the Conservative Party, is expected this week to call for the ban on several electrical devices including Plasma TVs and certain PCs and DVD players. "
