NEW YORK, Jan. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Nuclear power is back at the center of attention as an effective method for combating climate change. In addition to the support governments around the world have shown for the industry in recent years, private investors and market movers are now getting involved. Furthermore, celebrities and major movie directors are now working on destigmatizing nuclear energy. For example, director Oliver Stone has shown his support for nuclear power with a screening of his documentary movie 'Nuclear' at this year's World Economic Forum in Davos. According to the New York Times, the screening, "was packed — to the point of attendees sitting on the floor."
