Other European countries have yet to indicate whether they will follow Germany’s example; a world free from nuclear energy is hard for its supporters to imagine. Europe’s economic and ecological future, however, depends upon the rising opposition to this high-risk technology, such as in Italy, where a recent referendum delivered a large popular majority against nuclear energy.
德国6月做出的到2022年逐步淘汰核能应用的决策刺激了周边支持核能应用的邻国。其他欧洲国家还没有表态他们是否会仿效德国的决策；核能支持者无法想象一个没有核能的世界。意大利最近一次公投显示大部分民众反对核能应用，对这项高风险技术越来越强的反对力量将决定欧洲在经济和生态方面的未来。
