Latest Nuclear Energy Quotes

"We talked about nuclear power, well it has to be safe, environment, blah, blah, blah. "

2008 by John McCain from swamppolitics.com

"I have been consistently against Yucca Mountain. I held a hearing in the Environment Committee, the first that we’ve had in some time, looking at all the reasons why Yucca Mountain is not workable. The science does not support it. We do have to figure out what to do with nuclear waste."

2008 by Hillary Clinton from lasvegassun.com

"I will end the notion of Yucca Mountain because it has not been based on the sort of sound science that can assure the people in Nevada that they’re going to be safe. And that, I think, was a mistake."

2008 by Barack Obama from lasvegassun.com

"How can you possibly talk about alternative energy sources without nuclear power? It can have a real impact on decreasing greenhouse gases."

2007 by John McCain from seacoastonline.com

"We can do storage or reprocessing [about the issue of disposing of spent nuclear fuel rods]. Look at what the French and other industrialized countries are doing. It's not a matter of technology, but leadership, and the American people can be convinced this is one of the smart routes to take."

2007 by John McCain from seacoastonline.com

"Until we can figure out what to do with the waste and overcome the political objections, we should not be putting a heavy emphasis on nuclear."

2007 by Hillary Clinton

"I do not favor nuclear power. We haven't built a nuclear power plant in decades in this country. There is a reason for that. The reason is it is extremely costly. It takes an enormous amount of time to get one planned, developed and built. And we still don't have a safe way to dispose of the nuclear waste. "

2007 by John Edwards from ontheissues.org

"Here they go again. After thirty years without a firm order, the atomic power companies are pushing their radioactive, costly technology for a comeback on the backs of you the taxpayers. The old argument in the Seventies was that nuclear powered electricity would reduce our dependence on foreign oil. With only three percent of our electricity coming from burning petroleum, the pro-nuke lobby is now jumping on the global warming bandwagon."

2007 by Ralph Nader from commondreams.org

"As Congress considers policies to address air quality and the deleterious effects of carbon emissions on the global ecosystem, it is reasonable – and realistic – for nuclear power to remain on the table for consideration. Illinois has 11 nuclear power plants – the most of any State in the country – and nuclear power provides more than half of Illinois’ electricity needs."

2005 by Barack Obama from epw.senate.gov
