"You have to go to mines that are not even there yet in order to try and contract supply." -StockInterview.com, later quoted in Canada’s Globe and Mail newspaper - January 10, 2006 |

| Environmentalists Endorse Nuclear Power “In this electric world, nuclear energy is our one spark of hope.” -James Lovelock, Great Britain’s premiere ecologist, founder of Gaia Theory “Nuclear energy is the only non-greenhouse gas-emitting power source that can effectively replace fossil fuels and satisfy global demand.” - Patrick Moore, Greenpeace Co-Founder “Nuclear power plants are very high yield, with low-cost fuel. Finally, they offer the best avenue to a ‘hydrogen economy,’ combining high energy and high heat in one place for optimal hydrogen generation.” -Stewart Brand, Founder of Whole Earth Catalog “I have been a committed environmentalist for many years. It is because of this commitment and the graveness of the consequences of global warming for the planet that I have now come to the conclusion that the solution is to make more use of nuclear energy.” - Hugh Montefiore, Former chairman and trustee for Friends of the Earth "If we believe that global warming is a real threat to our planet, then the very best way to provide base load electricity is through emission-free production of nuclear power.” -Norris McDonald, President, African American Environmentalist Association |

Major U.S. Media Heralds Washington Post: “A global renaissance in nuclear power is gaining momentum.” Fortune: “Nuclear power is back and not a moment too soon.” USA Today: “Nuclear power creates virtually none of the pollution that causes climate change and delivers electricity cheaper than other forms of generation do." Business Week: “Could boost national security by reducing our dependence on Middle East Oil." New York Times: "It's increasingly clear that the biggest environmental threat we face is actually global warming, and that leads to a corollary: nuclear energy is green. . . . Nuclear power, in contrast with other [energy] sources, produces no greenhouse gases. . . [F]or now, nuclear power is the only source that doesn’t contribute to global warming and that can quickly become a mainstay of the grid.” Boston Globe: “Nuclear power didn’t go away. Instead it got better. Nuclear power today supplies 20 percent of the nation’s electricity, second only to the 52 percent generated by coal. Nuclear power has other advantages. It doesn’t come from politically unstable countries and it doesn’t release greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. That last point is critical.”
Politicians - Senator John McCain (Arizona) “Nuclear power is one of the safest, cleanest sources of power in the world, and we need more of it here in America.” - President George W. Bush “America is poised to reinvest in nuclear energy as part of a larger strategy to move away from our over-reliance on natural gas. Nuclear energy is clean, reliable and affordable.” - Senator Pete Domenici (New Mexico) “Our nation’s future electricity needs cannot be met almost exclusively by natural gas, but must be a reasonable combination of efforts that include energy conservation, energy efficiency, renewable energy, nuclear energy and clean-coal technology.” -U.S. Conference of Mayors (June 2004) Uranium & Nuclear Power Quiz Answers 1. 40,251 tonnes 2. 878 tonnes 3. 64,102 tonnes 4. 16% 5. 2002, 90.5% capacity 6. 2004 7.
