After researching and studying several types of energy and thinking about North Carolina‚ it seem that the best option for North Carolina is nuclear energy for many reasons. There are pros and cons for nuclear energy. However‚ all of the energy sourced that were researched had pros and cons. Nuclear energy is already being used successfully in North Carolina. Also‚ it provides almost 32% of the state’s energy already. It is also a fairly clean energy source. This is especially important since

However‚ nuclear energy also has a lot of disadvantages‚ such as nuclear wastes‚ nuclear plant accidents and nuclear weapons. So before widely use this technology‚ both pros and cons should be taken in consideration. On one hand‚ nuclear energy is not renewable‚ so the problem of nuclear waste is still unsolved. Nuclear waste is a waste produced by

Why Nuclear Energy is the best Source Nuclear Energy is the best power source‚ and is the future for the world. It is man-made and almost provides no pollution‚ it is good for the economy‚ and it provides the most electricity. With Nuclear energy you will not worry about if coal will last or if it’s raining outside anymore. You will simply flip on a switch like you do now‚ but you will know that little environmental harm was done in the process. Let’s take a look at the world’s future power source
