A draft report was released by Michigan’s Public Service Commission that says if the state wants to meet its goal of being carbon free by 2040, it will need to invest in new nuclear energy.
Sheri McWhirter covered the story for MLive.
“For many climate action advocates and even energy industry proponents, yes, nuclear energy is clean energy. It comes without planet warming carbon emissions,” said McWhirter. “But there are those in the environmental justice realm who have equally valid concerns about the harmful effects of uranium mining.”
