Nader says conservation could end need for nuclear plants
Ralph Nader testified before a California Assembly committee that energy conservation and solar power could eliminate the need for new nuclear plants. He argued corporate power interests ignore conservation funding, while a Stanford expert called the critique of nuclear energy a Trojan horse. The initiative’s advocates claim it would curb new reactors unless safeguards are proven. critics say it imposes impossible standards. Nader cites Los Angeles oil embargo lessons and Sweden’s low energy use with high living standards to support conservation as the primary short term option.
