The author contends that selling nuclear power reactors facilitates the proliferation of atomic bombs because these reactors produce plutonium. The text advocates for a strategy of improving energy efficiency and deploying transitional fossil-fuel technologies to allow time for a shift to sun, wind, and organic conversion energy sources.

• The author argues that the sale of large nuclear power reactors contributes to nuclear proliferation because these reactors produce enough plutonium annually to create dozens of bombs, and any country with such a reactor can manufacture atomic weapons.
• To prevent the proliferation of atomic bombs, the author suggests avoiding dependence on nuclear technologies and instead focusing on improving energy efficiency and using transitional fossil-fuel technologies.
• The document proposes a long-term transition over approximately fifty years toward diverse energy technologies based on energy income, specifically mentioning sun, wind, and organic conversion.
