Many people think that nuclear
power
 has more benefits than drawbacks. It can be used in many
fields
 and provide clean and cheap
energy
. I believe that the pros of nuclear
energy
 outweigh its cons.
This
 essay will discuss its advantages and disadvantages in the forthcoming paragraphs.
To begin
 with, It is said that science is the mother of invention. Earlier, nuclear
power
 was used in a world war but now it can be used in many
fields
such
 as medical and environmental. In medicine, nuclear
power
 is used to cure cancer at any stage. Cancer cells can die with the help of nuclear
energy
 and it can give life to cancer patients.
Moreover
, nuclear
energy
 is
also
 used to reduce carbon emissions. It is really beneficial for environmental purposes.
For instance
, In the UK, since 2018 the government is using a small amount of nuclear
energy
 to clean the environment.
Furthermore
, it is not expensive
energy
 and even can be affordable in developing countries.
On the other hand
, others believe that it is dangerous
energy
 for the world. No doubt, Hiroshima and Nagasaki are still suffering from
this
 effect. It will become common that people will use weapons of nuclear
power
. But I think that government should have complete control of nuclear
power
. It should not provide to the common man.
Then
 it can save many human lives. To conclude, in my opinion, I believe that the use of nuclear
energy
 in the medical and environmental
fields
 can save many lives and our environment. The higher authorities should have control to provide nuclear
energy
 to these
fields
 only.
