A Simple Statement On Nuclear Power and Climate Change
We're getting a little tired hearing nuclear industry lobbyists and pro-nuclear
politicians allege that environmentalists are now supporting nuclear power as a
means of addressing the climate crisis. We know that's not true, and we're sure
you do too. In fact, using nuclear power would be counterproductive at reducing
carbon emissions. As Amory Lovins of Rocky Mountain Institute points out, "every
dollar invested in nuclear expansion will worsen climate change by buying less
solution per dollar..."
The simple statement below will be sent to the media and politicians whenever
they misstate the facts. We hope you and your organization will join us and sign
on in support here.
"We do not support construction of new nuclear reactors as a means of addressing
the climate crisis. Available renewable energy and energy efficiency
technologies are faster, cheaper, safer and cleaner strategies for reducing
greenhouse emissions than nuclear power."
