The Good vs The Bad

THE GOOD	THE BAD
Nuclear energy now provides about 11% of the world's electricity from about 450 power reactors.	Just over two nuclear accidents happen each year.
Nuclear power facilities can produce energy at a 91% efficiency rate 24/7, with virtually zero carbon emissions.	The disposal and storage of nuclear waste are time-consuming, expensive processes
Wealth of the country (The U.S. saves $12 billion dollars each year for energy costs because of nuclear power).	Nuclear fuels are plutonium and uranium, which are radioactive metals. This means it is a resource that is non-renewable
If we don’t use nuclear then we will use coal and burning that coal causes smog, soot, acid rain, global warming, and toxic air emissions.	Detonation has a major ethical impact and testing must require a detonation at some point.
