Crazy Greens say windmills more modern than nuclear

From here.

The Greens deputy leader Christine Milne said an internal Labor-party debate about nuclear power would simply delay action on climate chance.

"It is not the technology of the moment, renewables is the technology of the moment and it would be a backwards step for the government to now reconsider nuclear," Senator Milne said.

"Nuclear is too slow, too expensive and too dangerous."

Windmills have been around for 1000 years. How exactly is nuclear power not the "technology of the moment" and yet windmills are?
