We are for it. It's a green, but It can also be deadly.
“The Federal Government should continue the usage of nuclear energy.” This could be a bad thing to stop but could also be a better thing to stop. There is a lot of energy being wasted when transporting the nuclear waste created. On the other hand, this can form a better way to use energy.
Some pros are:
-
Nuclear power also has a lot fewer greenhouse emissions.
-
Nuclear power produces very inexpensive electricity.
-
It is estimated that with the current rate of consumption of uranium, we have enough uranium for another 70-80 years.
-
It is more compelling and more proficient than other energy sources.
-
If we know how to control atomic fusion, the same reactions that fuel the sun, we can have almost unlimited energy.
-
Can run under any climate change and/or temperature
-
Makes the income of delivering power low.
-
There is no negative impact on water, land or any territories.
Some cons are:
-
The process of mining and refining uranium hasn’t been a clean process.
-
Transporting nuclear fuel to and from plants represents a pollution hazard.
-
Once the fuel is used, you can’t simply take it to the landfill, it’s radioactive and dangerous.
-
A nuclear power plant creates 20 metric tons of nuclear fuel per year, and with that comes a lot of nuclear waste.
-
It can also cause damage to living things in and around the plants.
-
The radioactive waste produced can potentially cause serious health effects on the lives of people as well as the environment.
-
Nuclear energy is used to make weapons.
-
If these weapons go into the wrong hands, that could be the end of this world.
