I would worry more about internal sabotage blowing one of these up before the sea levels.
I am all for nuclear, but safe, stiffly and neutrally regulated nuclear.
Hybrid reactors are the future, they can burn Uranium, and also the waste products we normally bury and have to guard for 100k years.
But you know Greenpeace, hippies, oil company lobbying...
We could never fully research it without beaurocracy, and red tape, due to how "dangerous" it is .
Until We can get that plasma reactor working in Europe nuclear is our best hope, I am a peak oil believer, and the videos from Wyoming and other places, of people lighting thier drinking water on fire is more than enough proof to me, that the oil companies are running short on profits. Fracking is a job creator though! Too bad tens of thousands need to drink bottled water because of it.

The future. Once we make it viable.
Remember, until that first graphite pile, nuclear was a pipe dream too...
We just need scientists to decide funding, than politicians who would rather buy a tank, or Joint Strike Fighter. (or outright pocket it)
