How to win argument for producing electricity by nuclear energy with zero carbon emission
In
light of the post below on Q&A with Bill Gates, this is also a good
read trying to answer why anti-nuclear movement has had some track in
countries like Australia and how to win zero carbon electricity by
nuclear power argument: "in South Australia around 720g CO2-e/kWh (which
is one of the lowest levels in the country I might add. NSW, Victoria
and Queensland are all much higher), compared to a mere 90g CO2-e/kWh in
nuclear dominated France.": http://decarbonisesa.com/2011/07/08/why-pro-nuclear-has-failed-when-anti-nuclear-has-succeeded/
And here you could find the greenhouse gas
emissions from power generation by different methods, as seen: "Nuclear
energy is among those energy sources producing very low levels of carbon
dioxide emissions from their full life cycle. It is closely comparable
with renewables such as wind, solar and hydro in this respect." http://www.world-nuclear.org/why/greenhouse_gas_from_generation.html
