Public attitudes to nuclear?
Posted by: Futerra teamNew Tyndall Centre research on public attitudes towards nuclear energy comes up with some tough findings for the nuclear industry:
People tend to favour renewable energy sources over fossil fuels, whilst nuclear power is the least favoured of the three.
If the costs of supplying the UK’s energy needs were the same from either nuclear power or renewable energy sources, 77% of the respondents indicated they would prefer renewable energy sources. Less than 10% would prefer nuclear power over renewables under such circumstances.
