The nuclear industry likes to claim that nuclear power plants produce no carbon dioxide at all1. This is just not true.Läs mer

1. 1. See, for example, this story where the station director of Sizewell nuclear power plant, in England, when faced with protests as part of the Climate Camp in 2007, claims "For us it's a surprise. We believe we're the only electricity generator that does not produce carbon dioxide emissions..."

By the start of the 1990s the nuclear industry in many European countries was facing extinction. Most governments were planning to let the existing nuclear power plants run for the rest of their operating lives, possibly even to extend their lives a bit, but almost no-one was looking to build new nuclear reactors, or even to replace the existing ones when they were retired.Läs mer

The nuclear industry has grabbed hold of the issue of climate change like a drowning man grabbing a raft. They claim it once again makes the case for nuclear power. But why is this, and is it true?

The short answer is that the nuclear industry was in big, big trouble and saw climate change as a way out. And no, it's not true. Nuclear power is no sort of solution to climate change. Rather, it is a dangerous distraction which will divert energy and resources away from the real solutions and into the pockets of the nuclear industry.
