A Dissertation Presented using the Qualitative Content-Analysis

Komi Emmanuel Fiagbe Gbedegan

I believe your concentration is sustainability.

This needs to be inserted into your work.

However, the share of nuclear energy in the global energy mix has decreased at a time when it should be increasing as shown by global warming and climate changes (Schwarz & Cochran, 2012). According to Sailor et al. (2000), nuclear energy is a sustainable energy source that can meet existing energy needs while ensuring environmental stability.

This proposed study seeks to explore the phenomenon of decreased usage of nuclear energy despite its potential to solve global warming and climate changes. The researcher will explore various issues that have characterized the decrease of nuclear energy recently in order to gain insights on sustainability aspects or sustainability considerations that might support a reversal of this trend and contribute to the industry's resurgence.
