>An EU official said gas and nuclear were likely to have “amber” status, meaning they would not be in the “green” category with wind and solar power, but would feature in the taxonomy. A senior EU diplomat said they expected to see nuclear in the text because “Von der Leyen seems to have promised it to Macron and the other nuclear states”.
So it’s likely they aren’t going to be labeled as green.
What’s with the unflattering photo of Greta? Could have just gone with the usual dirty energy plant cooling towers.
Gas no. Nuclear yes.
In effect this could end up allowing subsidies for gas. Lunacy. Not sure why the furor over nuclear though. It isn’t perfect but it’s probably the best stepping stone to clean energy
