It is my opinion that the Sizwell C application should be approved and the station constructed - because 1 - This area desperately requires the the quantity and quality jobs that will be created during construction and the ongoing running/maintenance of the station 2 - The large number of apprenticeship positions created by the project will provide excellent opportunities to the areas young people 3 - The money spent in the region via supply chain will enhance local business opportunities for decades 4 - The money spent in the region by workers during construction and ongoing will provide a powerfull boost to the local hospitality and retail businesses 5 - The UK must cut it's CO2 emissions which will require stopping the generation of electricity from coal, natural gas and biomass, a lot of which is imported 6 - The country must have the carbon friendly electricity generated by the station as we move away from vehicles with internal combustion engines and over to EVs which will place large demands for electricity on the grid
