Development of thorium-based power generation is great and all, but I personally have seen it too often used as an excuse to avoid supporting immediate nuclear adoption.  People seem to forget that present uranium fission power is already *incredibly* safe, and has an even lower environmental footprint, in many ways, than solar or wind.

This is true and the progress made on molten sodium-core reactor designs only improve that further. I'm much more in favor of diversification to maximize how long we can use fissile materials over mothballing rapid adoption of good tech, but since spent thorium can be re-enriched, it's a long-term goal that we should be consistently moving toward in my opinion.
