This year’s UNGA Science Summit will host an international group of experts to discuss nuclear energy’s unique ability to underwrite a prosperous and sustainable future by providing reliable, low-carbon electricity, and phasing out coal.
This session will include individual talks from our speakers covering a range of topics including nuclear’s ability to decarbonize sectors beyond electricity and its unique potential to justly transition coal plants and their workers to a clean energy economy. The event will finish with a panel style discussion covering how the world is rekindling its love for the energy source. Participants will also highlight advancements in nuclear technology and address socioeconomic implications, including creation of high-paying, permanent jobs and international collaboration among nations. The panel aims to challenge misconceptions and promote informed dialogue on nuclear energy's role in achieving a sustainable future.
