Nuclear Energy

Nuclear power is the use of sustained nuclear fission to generate electiricity. Today,

nuclear power plants provide about 6 % of the world’s energy and 50% of world’s

electiricity.While these numbers seems satiably good, does anyone have the information about

the dangers of it? Nuclear power is clearly a bad type of energy source because of its being expensive and harmful.

            First miserable point of nuclear power is its being costly. Uranium which is the source

of nuclear energy is a rare element and because of its infrequency, it is not hard to predict how

expensive it is. Acording to researches uranium sources is predicted to be consumed in

approximately 20 and 30 years. In addition to these, considering bureocratic and technical

details which are necessary for the establishment of a new power plant, a nucleur power

station will be completed approximately in 20 and  30 years and it is not possible to build a nuclear power as soon as possible.

            Another side effect of nuclear power is its being harmful for both people and nature. In

nuclear power plant energy is provided by shreding the automic nuclesus. During this,

unfortunately the term that we call  “radiation” emerges,constantly. It has been stored in

special buildings with lead graves and emits radiation for many years and continues to kill the

nature and people wtih cancer. Also, with the performing of the nuclear reactors the materials

such as plutoniom, stronesium, tritium appers as contamination. Firstly, plutonium is highly

poisoned and carcinogenic. As for the stromsium this radioactive material effects the plants

and animals. Moreover, the consequences are deadly when a nuclear station is damaged such

as Fukushima. For instance, the area where Chernobyle disaster happened is still plantles and

lifeless. No alive creature has lived on that territory since the explosion of Chernobyle nuclear station.

            Today the nuclear power energy is still continue to be produced all around the world,

Altough it is known for sure that the damages it create on people and nature are teribble. I

hope in the following centuries we as humanbeings give up from the nuclear power and begin

to use a kind of less harmfull energy source such as solar energy, wind power. If  we can not

find a way to get rid of the nuclear energy, we and our children might have three arms, two heads, one  day.:)
