Nuclear energy has no place in a safe, clean, sustainable future. Nuclear energy is both expensive and dangerous. And just because nuclear pollution is invisible doesnât mean itâs clean. Renewable energy is better for the environment, the economy, and doesnât come with the risk of a nuclear meltdown.ew nuclear plants are more expensive and take longer to build than renewable energy sources like wind or solar. If we are to avoid the most damaging impacts of climate change, we need solutions that are fast and affordable. Nuclear power is neither. We can do better than trading off one disaster for another.
nuclear power plants run on uranium an element so energy rich that a single fuel pellet the size of a fingertip contains as much energy as 17000 cubic feet of natural gas 1780 pounds of coal or 149 gallons of oil the u s saves $ 12 billion dollars each year for energy costs because of nuclear power
