Nuclear plants emit no carbon dioxide to cause the greenhouse effect nor sulfur and nitrogen gases to cause acid rain. We will surely be unable to meet our clean air goals without significantly greater reliance on nuclear power. In contrast, there is no solution to handling the billions of tons of carbon dioxide which coal and natural gas plants emit except to discharge them to the atmosphere. This is because nuclear plants replace many coal plants, which emit tiny particulates into the atmosphere. The Environmental Protection Agency believes these particulates kill thousands of Americans yearly.
Nuclear plants emit no particulates.
It is extremely unlikely that terrorist groups can build explosive devices from power plant spent fuel. Book reviews have been uniformly positive. It belongs in high school science libraries, and other libraries, too. It is ideal for nuclear energy workshops. Everything one needs to know to understand the subject is included in the book and is explained succinctly with the utmost clarity.
