Atomic energy technology, politics, and perceptions from a nuclear energy insider who served as a US nuclear submarine engineer officer

Stewart Brand in Newsweek Talking About His Support for Nuclear Energy

October 23, 2009 By Rod Adams

The Areva Blog has posted a quote of the day from Stewart Brand, which is a “must read”. If you are interested in the interview that was the source of the quote, visit the Newsweek blog to read Stewart Brand, an Icon of Environmentalism, Talks About Embracing Nuclear Power. Once you have read the great quote comparing nuclear’s environmental impact against coal’s environmental impact that is posted on both the Areva blog and on the Newsweek blog, I want you to focus on the really important comment that Stewart made.

Is there any hope for the upcoming climate change summit in Copenhagen?

Focusing on the nuclear issue, I would trust that they will not make the Kyoto mistake of refusing to give carbon credits to nuclear power.

Let’s figure out how to make that plea a reality this December.
