The rising cost and decreasing supply of fossil fuels such as oils and gas along with environmental concern, means that their continued use as our main source of energy is impractical and alternative sources must be found. The only realistic alternative is nuclear energy. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons and relevant examples for your answer.

Nuclear

energy

would be notoriously the only source for humankind to survive on because prolonged use of fossil

fuels

has proven to crumple our future dreams by our fellow scientists.

While

I strongly agree that fossil

fuels

could generate vast amounts of

energy

Use synonyms

, I

also

believe that we should consider different forms of

energy

Use synonyms

to gain what is there more than solely hooked up to these indigenous fossil

fuels

Use synonyms

.

To begin

Linking Words

with, it is undeniable that nuclear

energy

Use synonyms

is relatively harmless to the environment since the byproduct released by nuclear

power

plants

is only steam which is completely green.

On the contrary

, burning of fossil

fuels

Use synonyms

would primarily produce sulfur dioxide

due to

sulfur impurities in it ;

consequently

, causing the rain to be acidic.

Additionally

, nuclear

plants

provide abundant amounts of

energy

Use synonyms

as opposed to other alternatives,

according to

Linking Words

the concept of Physics, radioactive materials are long-lasting ; especially uranium-235 as it has the longest half-life. To summarise, it is indisputable that nuclear sources are the current form of

energy

Use synonyms

that we can rely on for many years to come. Despite all the benefits that are deemed beneficial of nuclear

energy

Use synonyms

, its

power

Use synonyms

plants

Use synonyms

are expensive and tedious to maintain. A construction site for nuclear

power

Use synonyms

plants

Use synonyms

requires clear lands which could be quite a hefty expense. Once built, the

power

Use synonyms

plant requires extreme safety measures which is an additional cost. These safety measures are taken to prevent nuclear radiation which could have detrimental effects on the environment.

This

is supported by the fact that nuclear

energy

Use synonyms

has high penetrating

power

Use synonyms

which can destroy living organism cells and leave radioactive after-effects which cause mutations in organisms.

For example

Linking Words

, the Chornobyl accident caused many casualties when a nuclear

power

Use synonyms

plant failed to operate safely.

Thus

Linking Words

, even with, its advantages there are still many drawbacks to nuclear

energy

Use synonyms

. In a nutshell, it is prominent that nuclear

energy

Use synonyms

plays a part in our lives as it is conditioned to be the latest and yet the best form of renewable

energy

Use synonyms

.

Although

having some minor issues, it is convincing enough to quote that nuclear

energy

is our safety blanket for the sake of our future.
