Why Nuclear can ELIMINATE poverty FAST, SDG#1
The first and most important UN sustainable developmental goal is, No Poverty (SDG#1). Many don't know, but Nuclear technologies can play an important role in helping eliminate poverty across the world. Increasing electricity access for people is known to improve their earning potential. It also comes with significant improvements in social productivity and time. I also share examples of countries like China and South Korea, who have successfully taken millions of people out of impoverished conditions by providing them access to reliable electricity.
