The world needs a new source of energy, an unspillable source.

Why are people against nuclear energy?

Question by CNL: Diavolo Blu: Why are people against nuclear energy?
Isn’t it clean power/energy? Nuclear waste, it’s only waste, is just elements emitting radiation. Sunlight also produces radiation. The center of the earth is molten heated by radioactive decay. 99% of the universe is radioactive. What are some of the cons of nuclear energy? Do you think it opens up a Pandora’s Box?

Obviously you have never taken a real science class. Nuclear energy is great… but the CONTAMINATED MATERIALS that come from it are a problem to dispose of because the radiation lasts for CENTURIES.
