Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power station. About 15% of Canada's electricity comes from nuclear power, with 19 reactors mostly in Ontario providing 13.5 GWe of power capacity. Proponents argue that nuclear energy is now safe and emits much less carbon emissions than coal plants. Opponents argue that recent nuclear disasters in Japan prove that nuclear power is far from safe.

Yes. The reason being, is that nuclear energy is actually one of the cleanest energy sources on earth. It's just people are afraid to use it due to the Chernobyl incident, when in reality, that was an accident, and not something that would happen when nuclear energy is used.
i dont support but i dont not support idk

Nuclear energy is the most efficient and cleanest of energy, except for they should be using thorium as opposed to uranium, and the reactor plants are to be set up in nine earthquake zones and nowhere close to a coastline
If it is used properly and you use it for the proper things and the things that you really need , just not wasting it .
I only support Nuclear Fusion energy
i do not have a stance on this issue
Yes as long as a safer metal than Uranium is used
@8PRN58W4yrs4Y
No, I believe alternatives towards nuclear energy should be looked into.
@Jatzuyu4yrs4Y
Yes, but only if they are monitored round the clock with certified people.
There should be no public subsidy and not until the issues of waste disposal and potential radiation leakage are solved.
Yes, provided that more money is allocated to nuclear energy research and safe, sustainable development.
Allow nuclear operation until the end of useful life, with no new nuclear, while expanding renewable energy.
@8VDQNYX4yrs4Y
No, there are more ecofriently resources other then nuclear
@8V4RHSF4yrs4Y
Yes, but safety is paramount and use only the newer generation fuels that have half life of 300-400 years.
@8R35BM74yrs4Y
You can guess what I’m going to say
@8HQW5774yrs4Y
i dont really care what they do
