Answer 1

Perfect energy sources cannot be find in this world.Every energy source has advantages as well as disadvantages.When selecting energy sources it is important to select energy sources which are less harmful to the environment and which gives maximum benufit. Science is developing technology to fullfill human needs in a environmental friendly manner.In the case of nuclear power it is a prominant alternative for the rapid increasing energy need.It is emvironmental friendly way as it emmits less green house gases with respect to other ways of electricity generating.There are many advantages of nuclear power, it is a already developed technology, it has relatively low operating cost,it has a large mount of power generating capacity,nuclear waste can be reduced by recycling and reprocessing.There are some hazards in nuclear power too. It need high construction cost, there is a high known risk in an accident, it produce considerable harm to environment.The main problem is the nuclear waste last long time about200-500 thousand years.According to my point of view though it is accepted as a dangerous potentially problemetic way of generating power it can be used managebly.
