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.

    I’d say they are not yet commercially usable on a big scale, but then again the same has to be said about battery usage for renewables.

    The again, both areas need money and funding and I think it would be better directed towards storage solutions, because they don’t come with the downsides of Nuclear. I have to admit tough that I am not well read about thorium rector, so if there are flaws in this view by all means point them out.
