EU Survey Shows 61% Of Citizens Want Less Nuclear Power

Concerns about possible accidents and radioactive waste have pushed 61% of European Union citizens to say they want the bloc to use less nuclear power, an E.U. survey showed Monday.At the same time, a majority of survey respondents said they were concerned about climate change, which they attribute to the consumption of fossil fuels.

Nuclear power is a contentious issue in Europe. While E.U. officials acknowledge it is one of the cheapest sources of low carbon energy, they are unwilling to push for more reactors.

Finland and France are unabashedly pro-nuclear and building new reactors. Other countries, such as Austria and Germany, oppose nuclear energy.
Instead of turning to nuclear power, E.U. officials are pushing fuel sources such as wind turbines and solar panels. Clean coal technology is also slated to be installed in the E.U. by 2020, writes Dow Jones.
