Nuclear energy – The solution to climate change? S cience Dir ect, NikolausMuellnerNikolausArnoldKlausGuflerWolfgangKrompWolfgangRennebergWolfgangLiebertI Institute of Safety- and Risk Sciences, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, Austria Received 24 August 2020, Revised 7 April 2021, Accepted 4 May 2021, Available online 16 May 2021. Abstract With increased awareness of climate change in recent years nuclear energy has received renewed attention.

We then look at needed uranium resources. ....
