The danger of nuclear energy

As the disaster in Japan shows us, nuclear energy has the potential to create havoc.  As the workers struggle to avert catastrophe it makes us question the decision to use nuclear power plants to produce electricity. 

As we know, in the future energy demands will only increase.  So the question is how to feed the energy using beasts in our lives.  To me the obvious answer is renewable energy sources like solar or wind.  Why tempt fate by building more nuclear power stations?
