Nuclear is becoming widely recognized as a safe, effective way to deal with the current fuel dilemma.
There are now 104 nuclear electric power reactors safely producing 20 percent of the nation's electricity. Finally, nuclear is being widely recognized as a safe, economical source of energy. And because it produces none of the greenhouse gases believed to be a major factor in climate change, environmental groups are taking a more favorable stance on nuclear energy as well. And, as nuclear technology advances, over 90 percent of used fuel could be recycled to fuel nuclear power plants again and again.
Even some policy makers who have been lukewarm to nuclear seem to be coming around to its merits. People like House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Barack Obama are beginning to understand that nuclear energy needs to be part of the energy mix if we are going to meet our future energy demands safely and cleanly.

Nuclear power will produce energy using clean, environmentally friendly energy methods
For one, it is the most environmentally friendly source of all clean-air electricity options. In the latest report from the Nobel Prize-winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), nuclear power was distinguished as an integral part in humanity's attempt to mitigate the effects of climate change. This is because nuclear power plants emit zero greenhouse gases or pollutants related to ground-level ozone formation, smog or acid rain (Abraham). Nuclear power generation could saving the globe from emissions of between 0.8 billion and 1.8 billion tons of carbon a year. Nuclear power would significantly contribute to the stabilization of greenhouse gas emissions (Deutch).
