Nuclear Energy

Nuclear Energy is a potential energy of particles inside an atomic nucleus. There are a lot of Nuclear Power plants around the world right now. Everybody knows the Nuclear power is useful, but most of us didn't face the problems of Nuclear power plants until the Janpanese Nuclear Crisis. There was an accident in 1979 in U.S., which is called Three Mile Island accident. That's the second largest accident in the world history. I don't agree to build any more plants, because it costs more than $800 million dollars per one. In 2011, we still in the Great Economic Recession, we still have economic problems, so we don't want to spend a lot on the plants that there are still so many arguements on the safety problems on the plants. Therefore, I am going to do some more research on this topic to surport my opinions which is we should find better way to produce clean energy and helps our economic growth.

Japanese Nuclear Crisis indepth

This video explains how could a meltdown happen.It shows the moment of the Nuclear bomb and the power plant after the Tsunami in Fukushima, in Japan. In this video clip, we can clearly see a lot of people lost their homes and also many people were sepaerated because of the Nuclear Radiation. With more states of emergency being declared at nuclear facilities in Japan, nuclear scientist Imad Khadduri says the risk of damage from meltdown is less than in disasters such as Chernobyl and Three Mile Island.
