Abstract
Nuclear energy has sparked international attention as one of the most important strategies for reducing emissions thanks to its ability to provide low-carbon power. Based on this interesting fact, the current research explores the effect of nuclear energy on CO 2 emissions in the leading countries by nuclear power consumption using a quarterly dataset from 1990 to 2019. The study employs the quantile-on-quantile (QQ) estimator, which accounts for both non-parametric and conventional analyses and enhances the provision of unbiased and consistent estimates. In addition, the Granger causality in quantiles approach is adopted to assess the causality in quantiles between the variables of investigation. The outcomes from the QQ estimator reveals that in the majority of the quantiles, nuclear energy contributes to decreased degradation of the environment in the USA, France, Russia, South Korea, Canada, Ukraine, Germany, and Sweden. Contrawise, the feedbacks from Spain and China expose that Nuclear Energy Consumption (NUC) contributes to the deterioration of the environment. Moreover, the outcomes of the causality test disclose that nuclear energy and CO 2 emissions can predict each other in the majority of the quantiles. The findings above provide profound ramifications for policymakers planning nuclear energy and CO 2 -emission policies towards achieving sustainable environment in the sample countries and beyond..

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
