My experience in these debates, the person who wins is the person who establishes himself with the American people toward the audience, this can be a huge audience, as being one reasonably likable.

It makes no sense to close down nuclear reactors if they still have useful life.

There's never been a death at a nuclear power plant as a result of a reactor accident in the United States.

Without the 99 nuclear power plants that operate in 30 States, carbon emissions from the U.S. electric sector would be approximately 25 percent higher.

If all the nuclear power plants were closed in this country, it's the equivalent of adding 115 million cars to the road.

We cannot afford to take nuclear energy for granted.

The issue for nuclear is that, because it does these good things, like reduce carbon and have reliability and be part of the diversity mix, it gets no credit for this in the marketplace.

Our Nation's nuclear power plants are vital national assets that provide reliable, carbon-free electricity.

It makes no sense whatsoever, and it's apparently--certainly makes no sense for the same people to be urgently arguing to deal with climate change and then either quiet or urgently opposed to nuclear power.

Yes, I do. And it's driven by people being concerned about carbon emissions and global warming, and common sense taking hold.

Meeting state and national carbon reduction goals will be compromised without existing nuclear power plants.
