The Good Guy Nuclear Energy The article “The Benefits of Nuclear Energy” written by Bruno Comby was very enlightening. The writer told us about the pros of the nuclear energy, why we should choose nuclear power. Also he didn’t forget to talk about the nuclear accidents happened in the history such as Three Mile Island and Chernobyl. He mentioned about the fossil sources such as gas, coal and fuel; then he talk about this sources situation which they are going to extinct. He didn’t forget the renewable sources such as wind power and solar power. But he convinced me to that this renewable sources aren’t enough for our future. We also see the comparison of the costs of these power plants. With the acknowledge which I gained from the article, I have decided that nuclear energy is a key to our future. I agree to Bruno Comby. Nuclear energy isn’t dangerous, it is a necessity. The writer talked about the properties of nuclear energy, how clean it is and how efficient can it be. I think the writer is right. Fossil sources are near to extinction and when they are finished the world will face with a …show more content…
They pollute the world. They aren’t clean power sources. “Burning fossil fuels inject 23 billion tons of carbon dioxide every year into the atmosphere. Half of this carbon dioxide remains in the atmosphere” (Comby B., the Benefits of Nuclear Energy, 2008). This carbon dioxide gases causes the greenhouse effect, which changes the climate of the world that we live on. To prevent greenhouse effect we have to start using clean energies such as renewable energy or nuclear energy. Renewable energy isn’t very productive. Let’s talk about solar and wind power for a minute. These two aren’t strong enough to meet the energy needs of the world. Wind turbines only generates energy if there is wind. In today’s world we can’t rely on such an unsteady energy source. If we stay out of electricity industrial manufacturing will take
