NUCLEAR POWER: Finnish Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen argues that nuclear power will not remedy climate change
And I agree in that it is not the only answer. From Reuters UK:
Many energy experts say one key to cutting back carbon dioxide emissions that heat the Earth’s atmosphere would be to rely more on nuclear power to generate electricity instead of coal-fired plants
But Finnish Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen said reducing energy consumption, especially from automobiles, would do more to fight climate change.
“I don’t see that (more) nuclear plants can be a global answer” to climate change, Vanhanen said in a speech to the National Press Club in Washington. “It can not be the only answer.”
