The anti-nuclear movement holds that nuclear power is inherently dangerous and thus ought to be "replaced with safe and affordable renewable energy."

Some observers claimed to see a considerable overlap between opponents of nuclear power and supporters of unilateral disarmament during the Cold War. Others link the anti-nuclear movement to currents within the environmentalist movement who want the West (particularly the U.S.) to stop using so much energy and get back to simpler things.

Critics of unilatireal disarmament felt that the practice would not have the heralded effect but would encourage Soviet aggression (abroad) and facilitate repression internally.

Critics of the "back to nature" element among environmentalists often feel that it's either (a) misguided earth worship which puts people second and nature first or (b) a trick by redistributionist socialists to get the U.S. to transfer 100s of billions of dollars of wealth annually to third world governments.
