Wikiproj Assignment 3
-Could expand on the idea of the challenges for phasing out fossil fuels, section is relatively brief stating that those involved in the industry oppose it and fossil fuel use is widespread.
-Could add to the "Basis" section citing more studies showing that our current rate of carbon emissions is unsustainable, meaning we would have to take on a fossil fuel phase out policy.
-The "nuclear debate" section discusses pros and cons of nuclear power stating that it is a low carbon alternative while saying that those against nuclear power argue the opposite, maybe with some numerical data on the subject a reader could come to their own conclusions.
-In the "Environmental Risks" section, the article discusses the risks of nuclear power plants compared to other forms of power and states that nuclear power poses "significantly less" risks, if there were data to show this I think that this point would be more clear.
-In the "Environmental Impact" section the information seems limited and vague, I would like to include specific data for the reduction in water usage and co2 output that they state in the article.
