    That is why a central reprocessing plant under international control is planned. Does India also use renewable energies? Currently, coal, gas, oil and large-scale hydropower are India's main energy sources; the share of renewable energies with solar and wind turbines is around 12 percent, and nuclear power only accounts for around 3,5 percent. Since nuclear power is expensive, the prices...

    IV reactors were built in South Africa and were to become an export hit. Despite the great poverty of large parts of the population and the best conditions for the expansion of renewable energy sources, the government relied on nuclear energy and wasted a lot of money on it. Those involved meekly admitted in 2010: “The government was underestimating the severity of the financial crisis...

    The nuclear industry is now trying to correct its image with the label “sustainable” and to adopt this positive term. This was previously reserved for renewable energy sources. In addition, their rhetoric trivializes highly dangerous nuclear raw materials. For example, uranium is referred to as a “natural fuel” (2). In addition, the...
