Argument: Decommissioning nuclear power plants is expensive

Support

“The case against nuclear power”. Greenpeace. January 8, 2008: “Decommissioning nuclear plants also cost a lot of money. In a recent estimate, the UK government calculated that cleaning up the country’s ageing nuclear facilities will exceed 73 billion pounds (USD 100 billion). On top of this, the cost of building a nuclear waste dump costs around USD 29 billion.”
