Climate Change and Nuclear Power - David Hess

As the issue of climate change becomes more and more pressing, the search for a cleaner and more sustainable source of energy intensifies. But is heavily stigmatized nuclear power the optimal solution? And if so, is it limited to first-world countries only? And how important is the problem of radioactive waste?

In Wikistrat's latest podcast episode, Marina Guimaraes interviewed David Hess, a policy analyst at the World Nuclear Association, to discuss civilian nuclear power in light of climate change.
