Replace coal/oil with nuclear; allow off-grid solar power
I will work to remove government barriers to replacing coal-burning and oil-burning power plants in the United States with safe, non-polluting, high-tech nuclear power plants--and allowing off-grid use of solar power. We need to consider all scientific
and economic knowledge to care for our environment, not cherry-pick data to support a pre-determined outcome. Most pollution is generated in developing countries, so reducing pollution worldwide requires zero emission energy sources like nuclear."
Jorgensen said that the new tech surrounding nuclear is what environmentalists should be pushing over green energy options, like wind and solar. "If they were efficient, then people would have invested their own money in it to make a killing,"
Jorgensen said. "If there were profits to be made, you know that the greedy capitalist would have done it, right? And I say that facetiously. That's the good part of the free-market system, is that the dollars go to the good market choices."
