RE: ATOMIC NUCLEUS: Energy and politics

in #steemstem5 years ago

I fully agree with @agmoore2! Currently, nuclear power is the cleanest source of energy in terms of greenhouse gas emission. It is even cleaner than wind or solar power when all the cycle is accounted for. However, there is the problematics of the waste.

The choice stays binary if we do not account for future developments. In my opinion, we should do more research on what to do with the nuclear waste (that also comes from other source than just the energy industry, by the way) and improve the existing technology. On the other hand, it is very important to further develop clean energy sources. By only working out these two together, we may open the door to new (potentially preferred) options.

On the other hand, we as human beings waste a lot of energy. We should be more careful with our planet and use its resources more carefully.
