Thank you Mr. Banga!

While researching for my book, A Cubic Mile of Oil, I realized the necessity for nuclear power to meet global energy needs. Ever since, I have been an active proponent for nuclear power. Some of you may have seen my open letters on this blog to leaders and decision makers advocating for nuclear power. No wonder I was very pleased to read the news that the World Bank has finally lifted its ban on funding nuclear power. I reversed its policy and will now finance nuclear energy projects should host countries choose to do so.
