Nuclear power plants uses fission. Nuclear comes form nonrenewable substances. Every 18 to 24 months the power plant shuts

down to make radioactive waste. 1 in 5 households and business in the u.s uses

nuclear power energy. American uses almost 2,000 tons of radioactive

waste each year. More than 70% of Americas emission-free

power comes form nuclear energy sources. Nuclear power is being used in over 30

countries around the world.

Long construction time, plus higher cost due to complex radiation .

Unknown risk Waste lasts 200-500 thousand years. Target for terrorism

Lower carbon dioxide and other green house gases.

Future nuclear waste can be recycled Lower operating costs Large power generating capacity able to

meet the industrial and city needs.
