Radiation

Hayden/Savanah

5 Cons of radiation

Cons

Expensive Initial Cost to Build-Construction of a new nuclear plant can take anywhere from 5-10 years to build, costing billions of dollars.

Risk of Accident-all of these major nuclear incidents, it was human error or a natural disaster that led to the downfall of the power plants.

Radioactive Waste-it does produce radioactive waste that must be securely stored so it doesn’t pollute the environment.

Limited Fuel Supply-Even though it’s not a fossil fuel, the risk that uranium will eventually run out still exists

Impact on the Environment-to the waste that they produce, nuclear power plants create other impacts to the environment.

5 Pros of radiation

Pros

Reliable-Steady and Predictable

Low pollution-Nuclear power also has a lot fewer greenhouse emissions

High power output-The fuel to power output ratio for nuclear energy is incredibly high

More Proficient Than Fossil Fuels-

The other primary point of interest in utilizing nuclear energy is that it is more compelling and more proficient than other energy sources

Small land footprint-Compared to other common clean energy facilities, nuclear energy plants take up far less physical space
