Those findings might surprise physicists, who will be aware that the energy density of nuclear fission is so high that just a fingertip of uranium has an energy equivalent of 5000 barrels of oil. In it, we emphasize that nuclear is not only a low-carbon source of energy, but is also widely available, scalable and deployable.

The Regulation’s proposed criteria for gaseous fossil fuels (which includes both conventional natural gas, and synthetic gas derived from coal gasification) allow investment in their consumption without restriction in function, scale, or time period, as long as greenhouse gas emissions are no higher than 100 gCO2eq/kWh (see §4.29-31

We know we must now work to both cut greenhouse gas emissions to reduce the severity of climate change and at the same time work to adapt to the impacts we can no longer avoid. In fact, giving society cheap, abundant energy at this point would be the moral equivalent of giving an idiot child a machine gun.” Ehrlich agreed. “In
