It is part of the solution along with renewables.
C
Yes, In near future every mid Town will need it's own Nuclear Plant just to charge all Ekectric Cars without power shortage.
Try planting trees to reduce carbon-dioxide. (Or alternatively, stop cutting down the rain forests).
No,
Yes
No. I have no idea why we would use an energy source that once you turn it on you can't turn it off, its by-product is SO lethal you have to encase in a concrete lined steel drum & bury it hundreds of feet underground for about 10,000yrs, & if it blows up EVERYBODY dies.
Nuclear power: Is climate change the problem?
Fukushima is the perfect answer to this question, so that's a no from me.
No. Solar panels in the Sahara is the answer.
I’d prefer greener energy if it’s a viable option, nuclear isn’t good for a lot of reasons but I understand that wind & sun power aren’t constant so something else is needed, just wish it was less toxic.
Until it goes tits up and then it’s climate non existent
No it’s not.
Yes.
Hydroelectricity from dams on some rivers, only problem with nuclear is, where to dump the waste.
The green movement stopped the expansion of nuclear power, so the answer must be no,
Solar and wind waste from nuke power disasterous and dangerous
Heavy carbon footprint when being built. No long term (25,000 year half of plotinum) storage. Wave, wind, solar, fusion reactor when available. Fission has given us Three Mile Island, Chrynoble, Fukushima and many other insidents.
Solar , wind, and wave power is the answer
No.
No
It won’t matter if the population is dead
Thought solar and wind farms were the saviours of the planet? Environmentalists, just what the fook you want? an eyesore on the landscape or dumping of nuclear waste
Nuclear power is definitely not the answer for Britain. We're surrounded by the sea. Wave power is a no brainer.
hampering the electric car revolution. once again we are going to miss the bus with the slow reactions and no fwd thinking. hammond doing his best to screw us over
Farting cows is bad for the planet, honestly this is very poor even for a fabian socialist think tank that has came up with this tripe talk? average joe wouldn't believe this cow pot. Did the dinosaurs cause climate change? should we get taxed for farting?🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
I think we suck as much sun and wind in as we can until we are a civilised enough species to start using nuclear power in n this way. It will be the death of all of us. We can’t put a mobile phone mast up yet without causing issues
So who was the BBC cretin who put the Oldbury power station at OLDBURY IN THE MIDLANDS !!! A DUMBO !! NAME THAT DUMBO ! Your Lu Chrome map was useless !
Yes....
The target must be development of local small-scale processes, improved efficiency of distribution and reduction of use. Be that from biomass, fuel cell, wind, solar, tidal, hydro, geothermal, or hopefully fusion and other novel means.
Why are the government completely cutting the f.i.t. for solar in March Surely solar is a great alternative.
£11bn/yr of green subsidies already bleeding us dry.
Solar energy works by collecting uv rays no matter whether the sun is out or behind the clouds that's how solar works
Nuclear is part of the answer. Electric Vehicles going mainstream could be a huge leap forward for both air quality and reducing carbon, assuming our grid has low carbon/non polluting generators, but I doubt we could rely on renewables alone to keep up with the demand EVs bring.
No
Solar is the answer the government should invest in solar energy
No. Coal is.
NO !
Dunno powers that be should have decided long ago instead of this fracking nonsense. Personally if anyone had a brain wind and sea the way forward..
No.
How about solar/wind/hydro/thermal? All the climate change benefits without the risk of being radio active!
People don’t realise: solar does not work at night, wind does not work to capacity if air still. Batteries cannot hold enough charge for protracted use. Coal / oil / gas increases CO2 levels. Do you want energy deficiency to exist? UK producing a base load of 20% NP at moment
It’s cleaner than fossil fuel, hopefully as the years go on, the technology will be developed to manage the waste better.
I wish more people would discuss viable alternatives for the UK such as geothermal energy—a source of energy that could be maintained over a 24-hour period. Commercial hot rocks power schemes could work if the funding could be given and not pulled as it was in 2013.
It’s certainly an immediate solution to
No. Next...
Yes
Absolutely but we have lost our capability and now have to rely on others in a field we once led
Ask the people who “survived” Chernobyl. No.
Short answer NO long answer NO any form of answer NO renewable YES
Yes, efficient, clean and safe; renewables are not the answer on their own.
Ask the dying sea creatures that are still dying since the Fukushima accident. They still havnt got that under conyrol.
A nuclear winter?
Yes probably. Either that or a mass cull of humans
Most of the prizes given on television shows use fuel of some sort!😮 Holidays😀,big tellies😀,cars😀,money 🙄,etc. 1990UK:No1
No. Next.
Got to love how people think nuclear power is the only way to go. There are so many other possibilities, and probably some that haven't even been attempted yet. Nuclear isn't 100% safe, there are so many things that could go wrong. Also, where does the waste go?
Yes
What a stupid question. NIMBY Future generations ... we have present for yoooouuuuuuuu ..
It is AN answer, but certainly not the only answer - however dismissing nuclear power out of hand? is foolish in the extreme . Closing nuclear power plants in the US meant 'emissions' went up
Yes.
Hell no...
Yes
We are an island surrounded by water. Why aren’t we doing more with tidal power?! 🌊
BBCWorld No.
No it is not.
I love the ill-informed answers to this question. We have no choice. The energy gap cannot be met by solar and wind alone.
No, because nuclear power actually works, and the aim of the climate alarmists is to overthrow capitalism
But according to Sammy Wilson of the DUP, the Tories newly found best buddy, climate change is a con with no scientific basis, so there is no need to worry or take corrective action!
Yes.
No way, better a climatechange than a chernobyl. The way is more solar energy, more wind energy and more trees
No Build a Severn Barrage Not Dangerous Nuclear power plants The Severn estuary has the 2nd highest tide in the world Building the Severn Barrage would not only give safe endless energy it would also be an engineering marvel employing thousands
These people who are against Nuclear are only against it because they can make hydrogen bombs, Nuclear energy isn't only the classic Nuclear uranium reactor, there are many alternatives which solve all problems with current reactors, such as Fusion and Thorium to name a few.
nop its a big fat lie
Chernobyl 2.0
It's not THE answer but it IS part of the solution
madkentdragon until we have stopped Fukushima - don't anybody DARE to call nuclear 'green'
Yes, as wind and solar are not going to stop folk from freezing to death in the cold, still, winter nights.
None of the other solutions are viable if you’re buying the doomsday scenarios. So you really have no other choice.
If people from upstairs want to play with nuclear, they don't have to scare the gullible people with nonsense like 'climate change', there's no such thing. When those pricks got it wrong with their delusional theory, they blame people for what nature doing, what supposed to do.
No
Every new built should have solar panels.Ground source heat pumps.This would help solve the problem.
No. Next?
Nope
not in the UK its not as we have two new plants scuppered by Brexit in the last two months!!
No wind power is if the gov approve the bigger size blade and agree that on shore is better than +2 degree temp rise,protect national parks but designate some turbine areas, I look at them now as plannet and wildlife savers, they are now cheap and we won’t need to subsidise gas £
Nuke and wind - currently best bet.
Nope. Moving on...
Renewable energy is not climate change!
Wasn't for Chernobyl was it?
check it out!!
Sure is build them now
There is a combination of answers....geothermal, solar, hydroelectric, wind, etc. Efficiency! Population management! Consumption reduction!
funny how the name changed from 'global warming' to 'climate change'...
No.
Has it ever been isn't that why the new one has gone belly up
Nope, renewables with Storage is the answer. Govt simple need to level the playing field. We have the technologies 🤔
If the Tories say it is,it must be
That's like asking is the solution to ball ache a kick in the bollocks!
Definitely not! Earthquakes, weather conditions changing, it would be disastrous to even contemplate using it when we have renewable with wind & sea movement.
No
Stop worrying is the answer
No. It's part of the answer..But you knew that....
Fusion power is the answer.
Temporarily, until we can get fusion sorted
Yup
Yes
Yes
No. Tidal power (not weather dependant) is. No waste.
It's the only realistic solution.
No. See Japan.
NO !!
Hell of a lot better - with modern designs and fail safes - than fossil fuels.
