Mandating the reduction of carbon emissions could result in
the increasing use of nuclear energy. Is that good?
If the nation’s current and former leaders of the
Environmental Protection Agency are asked, the answer is an unmistakable ‘yes.”
In fact, once nuclear plants become operational, they are able to generate
electricity efficiently, safely and cheaply. Now that the White House has made
it more costly for utilities to emit carbon dioxide, nuclear energy could
become an attractive option.
