A growing economy requires energy. Just like our nation’s transition from whale oil and burning wood to fossil fuels, we must invest in and promote alternative energy sources that are more efficient and environmentally friendly. We recognize the urgent threat of climate change and the need to protect our environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The transition must include nuclear energy, wind, and solar.

We support nuclear energy as the strongest, most efficient stopgap between now and the full-scale implementation of renewable energy. We can recycle nuclear waste, and it is a carbon-free energy solution. We must implement policies to protect clean air, water, and natural habitats, ensuring a sustainable future for all.
