Energy Net on 20 Feb 09A group of foreign non-governmental organisations on Wednesday caused a stir at the Unep headquarters when their representatives protested at the inclusion of nuclear power as "green energy". They urged delegates attending the ongoing Global Environment Ministers' Conference in Gigiri, Nairobi, to keep nuclear power "out of the Clean Development Mechanism". The NGOs said that this form of energy should not be allowed because it had severe health effects.
