Dalaï Lama
SPIRITUAL LEADER
« In many developing countries millions of people’s lives remain under the poverty level and we have to think about these people… Just to look at nuclear energy from one side then to make a decision, is not right.»
Bill Gates
CEO MICROSOFT
« Nuclear is ideal for dealing with climate change, because it is the only carbon-free, scalable energy source that’s available 24 hours a day. »
Patrick Moore
CO-FOUNDER OF GREENPEACE
« The environmental movement itself has become the primary obstacle to reducing fossil fuel emissions. Energy and climate are two sides of the same coin, and they’ve got it completely backward.»
Brian Eno
SINGER
« As a result of over-excited media reporting … that single word [Fukushima] has probably condemned nuclear power for another generation, when in fact the accident produced no radiation-related deaths…»
Jean-Louis Etienne
PHYSICIAN, EXPLORER
« L’attitude face à l’énergie relève plus de la posture et du suivisme que d’une réelle culture qui demande de faire l’effort de se pencher sur le problème. (…) En ce sens je suis favorable à la poursuite des recherches sur l’énergie nucléaire.»
Maud Fontenoy
NAVIGATOR
« Nous devons aujourd’hui maintenir, voire rétablir, la part du nucléaire dans notre pays. Une énergie (…), assurant une grande part de notre indépendance énergétique et émettant zéro gaz à effet de serre.»
Vihreät de Gröna
PARTI VERT FINLANDAIS
Désormais, le Parti Vert Finlandais « est ouvert à toute recherche et développement de technologies à faibles émissions et respectueuses de l’environnement. […] Nous n’avons pas une attitude dogmatique. »
Elon Musk
ENTREPRENEUR
« We should build more nuclear power plants. I think that’s a better way to generate energy than certainly a coal power plant or a natural gas power plant. »
Sting
SINGER
« If we’re going to tackle global warming, nuclear power is the only way to generate massive amounts of power.»
Brice Lalonde
FORMER ENVIRONMENT MINISTER
« En France, il y a une litanie anti-nucléaire qui interdit de penser… Le nucléaire a un avantage, c’est qu’il produit extrêmement peu de gaz à effet de serre. (…) L‘électricité permet de faire le lien entre le bâtiment, la mobilité et la production décarbonée.»
Xavier Gorce
CARTOONIST

Sir Richard Branson
ENTREPRENEUR
« Governments need to realize that the cleanest and safest energy, statistically, is nuclear energy… We need to try to produce as many nuclear power stations as possible.»
John Kerry
POLITICAL FIGURE
« We need to rely more obviously on solar and wind; those are givens today. But Given this challenge we face today and given the progress of fourth general nuclear, go for it. No other alternatives. Zero emissions.»
Robert Downey
ACTOR
« It’s like half the people that were out there saying “No nukes! Shut down the power plants!” are now realizing nuclear is the best way to go for energy for the future.»
James Lovelock
ENVIRONMENTALIST
« Only nuclear power can now halt global warming.»
Barack Obama
FORMER PRESIDENT
« We are called upon to uphold the basic bargain of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty – that all nations have a right to peaceful nuclear energy…»
Yann Arthus Bertrand
PHOTOGRAPHER
« Je me pose la question, comment va-t-on remplacer le nucléaire ? Ce n’est pas honnête de dire que c’est possible avec des énergies renouvelables.»
Jim Hansen
CLIMATOLOGIST, 1er à alerter sur le changement climatique
« We have to phase out carbon emissions at a rate of several percent a year. I don’t see any way we can do that without the help of nuclear power. Nuclear power is essentially carbon-free energy.»
Mark Lynas
ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVIST
« Let me be very clear. Without nuclear, the battle against global warming is as good as lost.»
