An interdisciplinary MIT study, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 2003, 181 pp. - ISBN 0-615-12420-8.
Study Participants – Ansolabehere, Deutch, Driscoll, Gray, Holdren, Joskow, Lester, Moniz, Todreas.
We decided to study the future of nuclear power because we believe this technology, despite the challenges it faces, is an important option for the United States and the world to meet future energy needs without emitting carbon dioxide (CO2) and other atmospheric pollutants. Other options include increased efficiency, renewables, and sequestration.

Elsevier, Amsterdam, London, New York, 2004, 415 pp. - ISBN 0-08-044489-X During the last century, nuclear power has been established as a reliable source of energy in the major industrialised countries. It has a potentially important role in the future since it does not contribute to the production of 'Greenhouse' gases; a growing concern of continued fossil fuel power generation. The time is now appropriate to review the issues surrounding the...
