Radiation  Radiation is discover to be harmful to humans  Radiation can damage genetic material and can destroy the environment  Nuclear radiation can last many years for it to decay  The clean up of radioactive material is expensive and can take a long time

Three Mile Island On March 28, 1979 a nuclear accident on Three Mile Island happened Radiation escape into the environment The accident was cause some cooling malfunctions in the reactor The clean up plan of the damage reactor cost 973 million dollars and took 12 years It was the first nuclear accident in the USA

What The Accident Cause What The Accident Cause Before the accident there was about 200 nuclear reactors order to be constructed or under construction but the accident ended most of them Before the accident there was about 200 nuclear reactors order to be constructed or under construction but the accident ended most of them The accident is consider as the worst nuclear accident in the USA The accident is consider as the worst nuclear accident in the USA There was no new nuclear reactor order after the accident There was no new nuclear reactor order after the accident There was no health affects after the accident There was no health affects after the accident The accident is a factor that collapse the production of nuclear reactors The accident is a factor that collapse the production of nuclear reactors

Nuclear Energy  Nuclear energy is safe  Many countries are trying to built nuclear reactors to replace fossil fuels and oil  Nuclear industries do not produce as much as pollution as other energy sources and produce more energy  It is the hazards nuclear industries use to get energy and what it is produce after using it that people are worry about (uranium )

Nuclear Industry in the USA Experts have said nuclear industry will become the leading industry in the USA in the future In % of the energy in the USA came from nuclear industries The USA is a leading producer of nuclear power in the world, making up of more then 30 %

Nuclear Industry Today Nuclear industries have got safer They have got more laws and security enforcing them Recently a nuclear accident in Japan happens and was cause by a natural disaster the accident has shown the anywhere in the world that has a nuclear power plant is not safe even if it has more security, nuclear power plants are always in danger to terrorists and to natural disasters
