Here in California we pride ourselves on our
environmental leadership.
When we, at Mothers for Nuclear heard about
New York's proposed Clean Energy Standard,
we had to take a break from cleaning our solar
panels, habitat restoration and native species
monitoring ...to take another look.
New York's proposed zero-emissions credit
includes nuclear as part of a Clean Energy
Standard
Now that's environmental leadership.
Nuclear power is a proven, reliable, low-carbon
source of energy.
And the best part?
Existing nuclear plants are decarbonizing
our energy supply- right now.
But action is needed.
We need to keep existing nuclear plants running
to help solve our planet's biggest problems.
The New York Clean Energy Standard recognizes
that policies written in the name of the environment
should actually benefit the environment.
This means supporting ALL clean air energy
sources, instead of catering to political
and business interests.
Because at the end of the day, the planet
doesn't care where our pollution and carbon
emissions are coming from.
It just wants us to stop.
