U. Nuclear Power - More Pros And Some Cons?
April 23rd, 2009
Location to residential areas: They could be built on the same location to replace conventional coal and oil power plants. Nuclear plants do not not pollute the local air.
Terrorist attack: Unlikely- they were designed during the cold war to withstand nuclear missile attacks.
Nuclear waste disposal: U. has plenty of unpopulated areas for this. Not the greatest solution, but superior than having Florida underwater in a few hundred years due to global warming.
Electromagnetic radiation: no more that current elctric power plants.
Solar and wind energy are not feasable since neither would provide suffieceint power to heat your home and drive your automobile. With Nulcear both would go electric.
