How nuclear energy can help
... When electricity is generated using nuclear energy, there are almost no greenhouse gas emissions. So using nuclear energy instead of fossil fuels can considerably reduce the amount of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere. Already around 16% of the electricity produced globally is generated ...
