Geewhiz “new nuclear” lobby will try to hijack the March for Science

Nuclear proponents, especially those for “New Nuclear” e.g Small Modular Nuclear Reactors, and Thorium Nuclear Reactors, have set up a new campaign – called “Generation Atomic”. This campaign especially targets young people.

Their sophisticated campaign argues that nuclear power is necessary to combat climate change. they pretend to support renewable energy, but subtly downgrade it.

They argue that ionising radiation is not so bad, perhaps even beneficial.

They depict anti nuclear people as a”anti science”. Nuclear advocates often claim that anti nuclear people are “anti everything” – anti medicine, anti vaccination etc.
