"Greens are against nuclear power despite it being carbon free"

Except for the construction and the mining/processing.

DOES NUCLEAR POWER PRODUCE NO CO2 ?
By Dave Kimble, originally published by www.peakoil.org.au
May 11, 2006

Proponents of nuclear power always say that one of the big benefits of nuclear power is that it produces no Carbon dioxide (CO2).

This is completely untrue, as a moment’s consideration will demonstrate that fossil fuels, especially oil in the form of gasoline and diesel, are essential to every stage of the nuclear cycle, and CO2 is given off whenever these are used.

For low quality ores (less than 0.02% of U3O8 per tonne of ore), the CO2 produced by the full nuclear life cycle is EQUAL TO that produced by the equivalent gas-fired power station.
