Hungary joined the Declaration to Triple Nuclear Energy at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP28) in Dubai on Saturday.
The 22 signatory countries have pledged to triple global nuclear energy capacity by 2050. The declaration was initiated by French president Emmanuel Macron, the state secretary for energy and climate policy, Attila Steiner, said in a statement.
Steiner said the aim was to further increase nuclear capacity as nuclear energy was an important source of carbon-free energy production.
More than 80,000 delegates, including 140 heads of state and government, are attending the COP28 conference.

This is the first sensible thing to come from the “green” estupidos ever. Nuclear is the way to go, not wind, solar, and the rest of the B.S. They also need to triple their efforts to crack nuclear fusion, which is the holy grail of virtually free, limitless energy. But, as always, the “green” lobby is the obstacle: If you have free energy, then you can’t flip a buck off of “green” electric scooters, windmills, solar panels, etc., all of which are disastrous for the environment, much more so than the new generation of coal power plants and combustion-engine vehicles.
