Abstract
Mitigation of the climate change problem will require a transformation of world energy supply, in which fossil fuels are largely replaced by energy sources that do not emit CO. Presently, nuclear power provides over 6% of the world9s commercial energy, but there are barriers to its significant expansion over the next 50 years. Here we discuss these barriers and argue that none of them are insurmountable.Keywords
