Nuclear Energy Debate Questions What are the disadvantages of nuclear energy? What are the advantages of nuclear power? Can nuclear waste be dealt with adequately? Are nuclear plants safe from risk of nuclear meltdown/explosion? Can nuclear energy help reduce emissions, fight climate change? Is the terrorist threat to nuclear facilities non-existent/manageable? Where does your opinion stand on nuclear power? Which is more dangerous to human life over the next two hundred years spent nuclear fuel or carbon dioxide/global warming? Would you rather live next to a nuclear power plant than a coal-fired one? Why?
