Workshop: B052 Nuclear energy: between climate, economic and geopolitical issues, a struggle that is more current than ever
The ageing of power plants, the proliferation of radioactive waste, climate change, the war in Ukraine - nuclear power is a pressing issue that requires clear and urgent action in view of the decisive environmental and socio-economic challenges.
The nuclear industry presents itself as a providential and urgent solution to climate change, and new reactor construction programmes are flourishing throughout the world. However, the problems of radioactive waste, the exorbitant costs of complex and lengthy construction sites subject to numerous hazards, and the issue of safety, which has been illustrated by the war in Ukraine, place the anti-nuclear struggle at the heart of current issues..
For all climate justice and environmental movements, the challenge of taking an explicit position on the nuclear phase-out is crucial and urgent.
