Sentences with phrase «nuclear energy production»

While nuclear proponents use the green house gas debate to promote nuclear energy, nuclear energy production does entail emissions, very toxic emissions at that.

Consider a country with a large proportion of nuclear energy production (say 50 %)-- and consider a similar one that is solely reliant on fossil fuel energy.

Switzerland has interim storage of waste from nuclear energy production at Zwilag, with sufficient capacity for the expected lives of the current operating fleet; however disposal options still need to be defined and the government must continue to develop solutions.

And, his choice to highlight solar energy generation in particular, especially in a state that relies on similarly - thirsty fossil and nuclear energy production, strikes me as a little disingenuous.

While nuclear energy is regarded as the lesser of the two evils when compared at an emission level to the burning of fossil - fuels, it may trump on the containment of the heat process, which burns in a contained nuclear reactor through an in - ward heat - chemical reaction called fission, but nuclear energy production is a chain from uranium mining to the toxic waste disposal and therefore as an entire process is an equally high risk environmental option.
