What Can be Done?
§
§To fill “The Gap” we need to build > 6000 large nuclear units
§
§It is necessary to consider whether or not nuclear energy production can be increased in time to take over a large fraction of the load now carried by oil and gas
§
§Nuclear expansion?  How about manufacturing capacity, safety, plant sites, fuel supply?
§
§World “demand” will certainly decrease, unless something fills it
§
§We can fill part of the oil gap, at least.

This undertaking is massive -- similar in scale to buildup of the world systems for oil and gas, from exploration to customer delivery.  It can be done, but only with time and concentrated effort.  IF IT IS NOT DONE, THEN SOCIETIES WILL SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF SEVERE ENERGY SHORTAGES.

The worldwide nuclear community is actively working on ways and means to make this choice a realistic option for governments.
