Nuclear
power is generated by using uranium, which is a metal mined in various
parts of the world. The first large-scale nuclear power station was
opened at Calder Hall in Cumbria, England, in 1956.
Some
military ships and submarines have nuclear power plant for engines.
Nuclear power produces around 11 % of the world's energy needed, and
produces huge amounts of energy. It causes no pollution as you'd get
when burning fossil fuels.
The advantages of nuclear is as follows:
1. It costs about the same as coal, so it's not expensive to make.
2. It doesn't produce smoke or carbon dioxide, so it doesn't contribute to the greenhouse
effect.
3. It produces huge amounts of energy from small amount of uranium.
4. It produces small amounts of waste.
5. It is reliable.
On
the other hand, nuclear power is very, very dangerous. It must be
sealed up and buried for many years to allow the radioactivity to die
away: Furthermore, although it is reliable, a lot of money has to be
spent on safety because if it does go wrong, a nuclear accident can be a
major disaster.
People
are increasingly concerned about this. In the 1990's nuclear power was
the fastest growing source of power in many parts of the world. In 2005,
it was the 2nd slowest-growing.

A. Nuclear in general
