In order for an action to be moral, it must first be willed universally: 

An agent’s will acts on a law that it gives to itself. If pleasure were a law to you, then you would straightaway do the pleasurable act, but since you’re autonomous, you can reason about taking the action. Thus a condition of action is that the will is self-determined. KORSGAARD:
“Self-Constitution in the Ethics of Plato and Kant” by Christine M. Korsgaard
“It remains to show that
AND
of choice on which you act.” (120-123)
And, only universally willing can be self-determined. KORSGAARD 2:
“Self-Constitution in the Ethics of Plato and Kant” by Christine M. Korsgaard
“The second step is to see
AND
action of something within him.” (123-124)

Analytic. 

2. Actions are expressions of an agent’s reasoning from their end to the means, which unifies their action into a cohesive movement as opposed to fragmented steps. ROEDL:
Sebastian Roedl.  Prof. Of Philosophy, University of Leipzig.  “Two Forms of Practical Knowledge and Their Unity” in  Ford and Hornsby, Eds. Essays on Anscombe's Intention (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 2011) 239.

“We can give a more specific
AND
being conscious of her nexus.” 

Analytic. 

3. Analytic. 

Thus, the sufficient negative burden is to prove that the prohibition of the production of nuclear power cannot be willed as a universal principle. 

Contention:
No empirical object is intrinsically valuable. Their value lies only in relationship to rational agency. KANT:
Immanuel Kant founder of analytic philosophy “Critique of Pure Reason” 1781
“We have therefore wanted to
AND
 which is alone given to us.” (168) 

Analytic.
