Nuclear Reactor diagram

Reactor

Benefits of Nuclear Energy No greenhouse gases are released Saved $44 million compared to other fuels 4.3 billion barrels of oil have been saved since 1973 Our trade deficit reduced by $125 billion

Negative Consequences Nuclear waste is toxic and remains radioactive for 100’s of years Workers have to put waste in metal containers and bury in burial sites

Nuclear Plants in Missouri There is only one nuclear plant in the state of MO and it’s the Callaway Plant.
