Is Nuclear Power the Answer?

Not according to Climate Progress which exposes nuclear power's Achille's heel:

No, I don’t mean cost, safety, waste, or proliferation — though those are all serious problems. I mean the Achilles heel of nuclear power in the context of climate change: water.

Climate change means water shortages in many places and hotter water everywhere. Both are big problems for nukes.

… nuclear power is the most water-hungry of all energy sources, with a single reactor consuming 35-65 million litres of water each day.

You can read the whole blog on Climate Progress's blog.

One more reason to do a little research before you make a decision on ways to mitigate global warming.
