Germany will close down all 19 of its nuclear power stations over the next 20
years, under a law passed by the Berlin parliament last week. The decision,
which follows years of bitter argument between the nuclear industry and the
ruling Social Democrat and Green Party coalition, is the world’s most ambitious
attempt so far to phase out nuclear power. The British government is also being
urged by its advisers to develop renewable energy sources instead of subsidising
the building of 15 new nuclear stations (New Scientist, 15 December, p 5).
