The threat of nuclear weapons maintains world peace. Nuclear power provides cheap and clean energy. The benefits of nuclear technology far outweigh the disadvantages. To what extend you agree or disagree?

The usage of nuclear
power
has a long history of emergency and disaster.
Hence
, only several countries whose aware of the risk but still use it as an
energy
producer and other countries adopt safer kinds of alternative sources like solar
energy
or wind
power
.
Therefore
, I agree with the notion that using nuclear
power
is far more dangerous and outweigh its
benefit
in long-term utility.
Besides
the horror of nuclear usage history
such
as the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings in 1945 which make the city unhabitable until today.
Also
, the Chornobyl reactor meltdown kills many of its inhabitants and has the same fate as Hiroshima and Nagasaki which are not liable for an unknown decade ahead.
Additionally
, even if in Indonesia we already had BATAN as the national nuclear body runs by the government, the nation still lacks manpower with the only university that had nuclear courses as its main study being Gajah Mada University in Yogyakarta.
Moreover
, with the country's position as a tropical country and abundant sun and wind especially on the beach, we have the
benefit
of using it as our main
power
source.
Also
, we could educate people around it to preserve it together and make a more sustainable approach so they do not only rely on the government. To conclude, I agree that nuclear
power
's danger still outweighs its
benefit
and Indonesia already has abundant
energy
sources from solar and wind. The government and educated folks need to pay attention to it better and have a better understanding of how to put it to
benefit
the nation.
Otherwise
, it would be a huge waste for the nation, and a possibility of danger lurking if we still want to use nuclear as the main
energy
source.
