nuclear power and its disadvantages :: iOS7

first of all… Nuclear Energy is
the energy stored in the center or the nucleus of an atom. After we bombard the nucleus into two parts, two different elements are formed along with the emission of high energy. first of all…
3
Disposal of Nuclear Waste
is very expensive Harmful to humans, animals, and the environment because it is RADIOACTIVE - emits radiations from tens to hundreds of years. extremely hazardous and can leak radiations if not stored properly 1 disadvantages::
4
2 disadvantages:: High Cost
it needs a lot of investment to set up a nuclear power station It is not always possible by the developing countries to afford such a costly source of alternative energy 2 disadvantages::
5
3 disadvantages:: Target for Terrorism
Nuclear energy has given us the power to produce more weapons than to produce things that can make the world a better place to live in hot targets for militants and terrorist organizations where security is a major concern 3 disadvantages::

Will destroy aquatic life
Eutrophication is another result of radioactive wastes. There are many seminars and conferences being held every year to look for a specific solution. But there is no outcome as of now. Reports say that radioactive wastes take almost 10,000 years to get back to the original form. 4 disadvantages::
7
Will destroy human life
We all remember the disaster caused during the Second World War after the nuclear bombs were dropped over Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Even after five decades of the mishap, children are born with defects. This is primarily because of the nuclear effect. Do we have any remedy for this? The answer is still no. 5 disadvantages::

NP will not reduce our dependence on foreign fuel
58% of global uranium supplies come from only three countries (accdg to World Nuclear Association) can only be processed and enriched by six countries, and is currently only reprocessed in one country Uranium is not available forever – according to greenpeace – the remaining uranium will only last us for 80 years 6 disadvantages::
9
Nuclear Accidents are disastrous
Even small radiation leaks can cause devastating effects. Some of the symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and fatigue. People who work at nuclear power plants and live near those areas are at high risk of facing nuclear radiations, if it happens. Examples: Chernobyl and Fukushima Accidents 7 disadvantages::
