This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: glonuc1_grp3.cmap, Reports used to support the climate necessity argument do not include some valid energy options, such as wind and solar. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) The climate necessity argument does not compare nuclear energy to energies that produce less GHGE., There are 13 stages in the nuclear energy cycle. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Supporters of tripling nuclear energy trim data concerning GHGE produced by nuclear energy., Kyoto Protocol ignores the generated fuel cycle carbon content outside of reactor operation. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Kyoto Protocol is only using 1-2 cycles in their data., Nuclear energy emits about two times more GHG than solar energy, and seven times more GHG than wind energy. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Wind & solar energies release less GHGE than nuclear energy., Wind and solar energy are valid forms of energy production. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Reports used to support the climate necessity argument do not include some valid energy options, such as wind and solar., If lower grade ore is not considered in the GHGE tabulation, then the data regarding GHGE in nuclear power is not complete. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) The data regarding GHGE in nuclear power is not complete., Supporters of tripling nuclear technology claims to increase the number of nuclear plants are not valid. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) The climate necessity argument does not support tripling nuclear energy., If tripling nuclear plants will take funding that could be used for research in energies that produce less GHGE, and if the climate necessity argument'sprimary concern should be to find the best way to generate energy with the lowest GHGE, then tripling nuclear energy undermines the primary concern of the climate necessity argument. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Tripling nuclear energy undermines the primary concern of the climate necessity argument., Tripling nuclear plants will take funding that could be used for research in energies that produce less GHGE. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Tripling nuclear energy undermines the primary concern of the climate necessity argument., If tripling nuclear energy undermines the primary concern of the climate necessity argument, then the climate necessity argument does not support tripling nuclear energy. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) The climate necessity argument does not support tripling nuclear energy., The climate necessity argument does not compare nuclear energy to energies that produce less GHGE. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) The climate necessity argument does not support tripling nuclear energy., Kyoto Protocol is only using 1-2 cycles in their data. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Supporters of tripling nuclear energy trim data concerning GHGE produced by nuclear energy., Kyoto Protocol conventions assess carbon content created by nuclear plants during operation. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) If the Kyoto Protocol assesses the carbon content in nuclear fuels during plant operation, then the Kyoto Protocol is ignoring the carbon content created outside of reactor operation., Supporters of tripling nuclear energy trim data concerning GHGE produced by nuclear energy. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) If supporters of tripling nuclear energy trim data concerning GHGE produced by nuclear energy, then supporters of tripling nuclear technologyclaims to increase the number of nuclear plants are not valid., If wind and solar energy could produce the same amount of energy as tripling nuclear plants and is competitively priced compared to nuclear, then wind and solar energy are valid forms of energy production. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Wind and solar energy are valid forms of energy production., Wind and solar energy could produce the same amount of energy as tripling the number of nuclear plants. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Wind and solar energy are valid forms of energy production., Lower grade ore is not considered in the GHGE tabulation for nuclear power. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) The data regarding GHGE in nuclear power is not complete., If nuclear energy emits about two times more GHG than solar energy, and seven times more GHG than wind energy, then wind & solar energies release less GHGE than nuclear energy. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Wind & solar energies release less GHGE than nuclear energy., Both high and low grade ore must be considered. supports If lower grade ore is not considered in the GHGE tabulation, then the data regarding GHGE in nuclear power is not complete., Tripling nuclear energy undermines the primary concern of the climate necessity argument. therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) The climate necessity argument does not support tripling nuclear energy.
