Hydroelectric vs. Slow Volcanic Power

I like this article, but it's not a question of hydro versus geothermal. It's a question of harnassing all the sources of energy in the most cost-effective and ecologically sensitive manner. Each has a role to play and, in my view, hydro and geothermal should have a much greater emphasis than nuclear. It aamazes me that nuclear is so often given the "green" tag of approval. Has everyone forgotten about heavy water discharges and spent nuclear fuel rods???
