Insurmountable Risks : The Dangers of Using Nuclear Power to Combat Global Climate Change

See all formats and editions

How much will nuclear energy cost relative to other means of getting rid of carbon dioxide emissions?

What will be the risks of catastrophic accidents if we build reactors at the rate of one a week around the world? And what about the risks of proliferation and terrorist attacks, not to mention nuclear waste?

This book provides a meticulously researched analysis of the risks of using nuclear energy to combat global warming.

Were there no alternative, the severity of the threat facing humankind and other species from global climate change might warrant serious consideration of the risks of nuclear energy.

But as "Insurmountable Risks" convincingly shows, there are far safer economical alternatives.

Before buying into the idea that nuclear energy is the only answer, read this book - and then work for the alternatives.
