For or against nuclear power?
Nuclear energy…
- Build new power plants
- Extend existing plants, without new ones
- Phase out nuclear power
What's at stake: Nuclear power divides both camps: it pits stable, low-carbon electricity against the risk of accidents, waste and costs.
For
nuclear power produces low-carbon, stable electricity available at any hour.
Against
risk of accidents, waste that stays dangerous for centuries, and very heavy costs.
This issue doesn't follow the left/right divide. It doesn't count towards the test score.
