Republican Presidential candidate Sen. John McCain is calling for the construction of 45 new nuclear reactors by 2030.


Senator McCain stated.........
"Every year, these reactors alone spare the atmosphere from the equivalent of nearly all auto emissions in America. Yet for all these benefits, we have not broken ground on a single nuclear plant in over thirty years,"....."And our manufacturing base to even construct these plants is almost gone."

In addition to the 45 new reactors by 2030 the McCain plan also outline a goal of an additional 55 nuclear reactors to serve the US market.
