4 Reflections on the debate

Having looked at the range of arguments and weighed the evidence, you should now be able to reach your own conclusion on the question: Do we need nuclear energy?

Is your answer any different from the answer you gave to the initial question, of whether you were in favour of or against nuclear energy? If it is different, what made you change your view? If your position on the question remains unaltered, why is this?
