Nuclear energy is an efficient way to reduce the amount of CO2 in the environment. Nuclear energy saves of 2.5 billion tonnes of CO2 if that same amount of energy was 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

Using material from item 2B and elsewhere‚ asses the view that the nuclear family is no longer the norm. A nuclear family is today seen as only one of many family types in modern day society‚ there are many different variations.

The article then explains how nuclear energy performs‚ its safety issues and waste management strategies. The article also mentions negative aspects of Nuclear Energy including the problems in nuclear power development including costs of nuclear reactor construction and security concerns.

According to the report of Nuclear Safety and Security Institute‚ radioactive level in the central control room of Unit 1 reactor at the Fukushima Daiichi Station was 1000 times higher than its normal level after the earthquake. The communique reported that the amount of radiation around the gate of the nuclear power plant was increasing. It became 70 times

of nuclear power. The high Invest Costs would be the first challenge to face‚ The construction cost of a nuclear reactor is high; according to various studies‚ the total cost of building and making a nuclear power plant operational ranges between $8-17 billion(which is about 5~11 billion pounds). It implies a huge amount of investment from the beginning to the end — how to handle nuclear waste‚ or ‚more specifically‚ the Radioactive Waste. Radioactive Waste is a by-products of the nuclear power
