With the decision of the European Parliament to classify nuclear and gas energy as environmentally friendly, Brussels has sparked the ire of numerous organisations. We have asked the “Krone” community whether Austria should reconsider its position on nuclear energy. Read the best reactions here!
In typical Austrian fashion, many of our readers seem to approach this topic with a “never mind” attitude. Since there are already active nuclear power plants in some of our neighboring countries near the border, further construction does not matter much to many of our readers.
What to do with the waste?
The most common issue of our community is how to deal with the waste generated. reader kenneviel also points to the problems of decommissioning a nuclear power plant. This is accompanied by very high costs and an enormous amount of time.
How safe is that?
There has been much debate about whether nuclear energy is safe. For the majority of our readers, the fear of an accident predominates. There are no advantages to this either, it seems that people prefer to play it safe here.
What do you think about this topic, can you imagine an Austria with active nuclear power plants? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!
