Germany is shutting down its three nuclear power plants
After more than sixty years of operation, Germany will shut down its remaining three nuclear power plants today
They were supposed to be shut down a few months ago, but Russia’s attack on Ukraine caused a delay
The German government was forced to find alternative energy sources to Russian gas; the decision to close these plants has been controversial
Now, many countries consider nuclear energy a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels
Several of Germany’s neighbors are also expanding their nuclear energy capabilities because they can no longer rely on Russia and its energy resources
