ED MCARDLE: New nuclear plant would hurt the environment

Don't fall for the new nuclear revival. On Sept. 19, DTE Energy applied to 
the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to build a 1,500- megawatt nuclear plant 
next to the present Fermi 2 and the failed Fermi 1 reactor near Monroe.

The nuclear power industry and utilities have been convincing public 
officials and the media that nuclear power is clean, safe, affordable and 
the carbon-free answer to global warming. Not true.
