Nuclear Power Plant Persuasion Letter Dear Mayor‚ I have herd of your recent decision to build a power plant in our town I personally wanted to make sure you knew the consequences and effects of this before you made any drastic decisions. Over the past decade nuclear power has been used as a source of domestic energy and this has been increasing. But did you ever think about the heat rejection‚ gaseous emissions‚ environmental impact‚ and social impact. When it comes down to the heat rejection

made from burning coal. For every 22 tonnes of uranium used in the nuclear power plant‚ one million tonnes of CO2 emissions isn’t put into the environment. If the world doubled its nuclear output‚ it would reduce CO2 emissions by about a fourth. Nuclear energy uses less than 6% of their output energy to make their nuclear power plant run. Wind power would usually cost up to two times more per kWh than nuclear power plants. Many people fear nuclear energy. Some fear that the transportation of uranium
