David Lowry : Nuclear power has no role in “clean energy” because it isa very dirty technology!

The significant problem of long term stewardship
of radioactive waste has not been solved, notwithstanding the development
of experimental burial caverns in Finland and Sweden.

Nuclear operations
crept very large scale decommissioning challenges with vast buildings
radioactively and toxicologically contaminated. Moreover, there is
widespread radioactive and toxic contamination caused at uranium mines and
milling plants.

It is simply dishonest to persistently mislabel nuclear as
“clean.” The Nuclear Fuel production line also emits significant
quantiles of greenhouse gases, especially in the highly energy intensive
uranium enrichment. Nuclear is also not carbon-free or emission-free or
zero carbon, as it is often portrayed by its proponents. I would have
thought these points should have been put in your conference. Please assure
me that they will be. I will listen in on line to find out if this is so.
