Climate change is one of the most serious challenges facing humanity. To a large extent, it is due to carbon dioxide emissions due to the use of fossil fuels. Reducing and ultimately ending CO2 emissions is a huge effort on the part of governments, industry and citizens, as well as their concerted work to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and transition to low-carbon energy sources such as renewable energy and nuclear energy. Nuclear power generation accounts for roughly 10 percent of...
