The nuclear revival continues to gather momentum across Europe. Some countries are expanding their nuclear base or launching new-build programmes. Others are reviewing their phase-out policies or considering going nuclear for the first time. Meanwhile, public acceptance of nuclear energy has continued to increase - subtly but significantly. The results of the latest Eurobarometer Survey show that there is a growing belief among many European citizens that nuclear energy is the most effective option for ensuring adequate supplies of energy while combating the scourge of climate change. A new spirit of pragmatism has made the public more receptive than for decades to the irrefutable social, economic and environmental arguments in favour of nuclear energy. And although many still remain unconvinced, the public is making its voice heard. Without the support of a majority of citizens no lasting and meaningful political change can be achieved.
