This is a (slightly older) article about Nuclear Energy and climate change. It’s a hottly debated topic in climate communities, so I thought some of you would enjoy to read it.

Another article that brings up some more points against nuclear power can be found here.

I’d be interested what you ppl think of the matter.

    The problem is it just takes too long to establish nuclear in the first place. In order to reach the 2030 and 2050 targets nuclear can’t be trusted, because it is hardly possible to build new reactors in the remaining time. The new EU Finnish Plant took something like 25 years to build.

      I agree with you. It’s definitely the worst of the non fossil fuel options we have available.
