Yes, Nuclear energy is produced by a controlled nuclear chain reaction and creates heat—which is used to boil water, produce steam, and drive a steam turbine. The turbine can be used for mechanical work and also to generate electricity

NO, nuclear energy creates waste that is super toxic for hundreds of thousands of years later, and there is a chance of explosions or leaks. If everyone used it we would have no place to store all the contaminated waste. But if they found a way to reuse the waste with no side effects to our enviroment i would probably agree. Overall it is a powerful source of energy that severly hurts us.
I can%26#039;t see why people say it is safer than fossil fuels. Do you actually know what those poisons would do to our society. They would mutate communities for generations like the atom bomb did to the japenese. There are many other forms of fuel that are much better. Such as geo-thermal, solar, wind powered, hydro-electric from dams and ocean currents, etc. To me Nuclear energy is just as big of a threat as fossil fuels are. 0% 0 Votes -
Yes,Right now Nuclear power is the only source of energy that is able to replace oil.

With the ever increasing prices of fossil fuels (oil) and increasingly stringent controls on CO2 emissions (coal), it would be irresponsible to not consider nuclear energy as part of an overall energy strategy.
Of course, alternatives such as solar and wind also need to be developed and considered.
A well thought out plan also needs to be developed with regard to disposal of to the waste produced by nuclear power generation. 0% 0 Votes -
Its certainly cleaner
But the potential for danger is higher too.
I say yes if they can learn to be more careful with it. 22% 2 Votes -
until we can find a safe way of disposing the toxic, radioactive waste that it creates.... then NO thank you.
Wind and solar work just fine for me. 11% 1 Vote -
Maybe, we will need more energy for the present and for the future. We will need energy to come from nuclear energy, but i dont think it has to be the leading source of energy. However it will have to be a major player in the energy production field.

Yes. It%26#039;s a lot cleaner than burning coal.
