Judd Gregg: “What is the Senator's offset for this? As I understand it, it is money selected from the tax gap; is that correct?”

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.

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.

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 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.
