But how realistic is this?

Clean energy technologies, principally solar, wind, energy efficiency and distributed storage are rapidly out-competing nuclear energy on cost, speed of installation and community acceptance.

The big nuclear powers continue to modernize their nuclear weapons, countries with smaller arsenals are expanding their capabilities, and terrorists could pose the most sinister threat of all.

With 10 reactors in the GTA that’s completely reckless. The Ontario government needs to upgrade its nuclear emergency plans, publicly and transparently and it’s almost five years since Fukushima and they haven’t done it yet.” More on this here <http://cleanairalliance.us5.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=9e0d2b5aacdacc8f6d679bba2&id=eb4f597509&e=45743fde61> .
