By: Bryce, Charlie, And Conner

Advantages In a Nuclear Power Plant very little Co2 is produced. With Nuclear Energy we do not have to learn any new technology. Nuclear can produce a lot of electricity in one plant. Nuclear Plants do not take up much space.

Disadvantages Very Poisonous waste is produced. The power station is very expensive to build. Very high risks of explosions and can be targets for terrorist attacks. It takes years to plan out a nuclear plant.

Definition The Energy released by cracking the nucleus of an atom makes heat and steam to spin the Blades and make energy.

Where are the most plants in the USA It is manly produced in the Eastern United Sates manly in Pennsylvania and Illinois.

Conclusion I think Nuclear energy is bad because when it is produced poisonous radiations go of into the air. Nuclear energy will some day run out also.
