Default Nuclear Shutdown

So Germany will close all its nuclear plants and replace them with mostly coal and gas plants.

What do you think of this?

I find it a bit odd that nuclear plants will be replaced with coal plants, especially as the safety record for coal is far worse than for nuclear. I think the nuclear stories get blown up by the media because it is a new, "scary" technology, while coal is seen as old and safe.
