Wayne Messam on Environment

FL Mayor; Democratic Presidential Challenger (withdrawn)

 


Nuclear energy falls short; no new nuke plants

Q: Do you think nuclear energy should be part of the U.S.'s decarbonizing toolbox?

Messam: As president, I will work to make the United States a global leader in renewable energy. While nuclear energy may seem like an option, in many ways it falls short of the type of energy we need to truly address climate change. I would not support the construction of new nuclear plants and would rally the American people to invest in truly renewable [energy]."

Supports fighting climate change

Messam stated in his campaign video that he supports taking actions to reverse the effects of climate change. "When our scientists are telling us if we don't make drastic changes today, the quality of our air will be in peril, Washington is broken," he said.
