Many people think that using Nuclear power is going to do some the world good by reducing C02 emissions but this is simply not true. Arguments for and against are as followed?

There Is Not A Chance Of Spillage

There are also ever decreasing chances of a leak ever happening simply because of inventions like measurement level. This actually sets off an alarm when the waste is getting too much which means it is almost impossible for a leak to occur. This means that an accident is almost impossible to happen because someone will always be on site to stop it.

Do We Need The Power?

The real question that needs to be asked is, how much do we actually need to rely on nuclear power? The real fact is that a mere 4% of all of out power in the UK comes from nuclear means, is there not another way we could get this power? Well of course organisations like GreenPeace are stating that we can get all of out power from renewable energy such as sun, wind and tides but is this actually going to be a great thing? I certainly agree that these are much better alternatives to the plants but things like wind turbines are very loud and are a very big eyesore indeed. Is it really the first thing we want people to see when flying into the country?

They should not allow any more nuclear plants to open but I do not see why they should even bother trying to close the current ones they have all of the solids level switch and ultrasonic level controls that they need and for a disaster to happen the government would be in deep, deep trouble so I am almost certain that will not happen.

More plants also gives terrorists more chances to hit us hard and destroying a nuclear power plant could kill thousands.
