Is Europe’s Nuclear Phaseout Starting to Phase Out?

Cars That Think

Scientists from the EU Joint Research Centre agreed, reporting that nuclear power doesn’t cause undue environmental harm, despite the need to store nuclear waste. The obvious answer might be solar and wind. Poland has begun forging ahead with French-backed plans to build a half dozen nuclear reactors by 2043.
