Conclusion:

Conclusively, nuclear energy has a great potential as an alternative energy to meet our future energy needs. On the basis that all safety requirements are met in terms of nuclear power plants and waste is management. However, constructing nuclear plants are expensive, and there are various risks if plutonium becomes easily assessable, as they could be used to create nuclear weapon, and the disposal of plutonium is difficult. Alternative sources for energy must be sought out by the governement such as, solar energy, wind energy, hydroelectric power, hydrogen and geothermal energy. But these energies are not yet economically competitive. Therefore, a necessity has arised for sums to be invested in the development of improving alternative sources for they are cheaper, safer and cleaner for the environment.
