two major resources-coal and nuclear-for the production of electricity. The laboratory compares coal, which is the more traditional energy producing resource, to nuclear, which is considered the more modern energy resource. The laboratory demonstrates the amount of material needed, the wastes produced and potential effects from a catastrophe.

Nuclear energy is a form of energy that may not be the best option. Instead of using nuclear power, we should use solar power and wind turbines. Nuclear power would have the potential to harm humans and the globe. The toxins released from the use of this could produce the radioactivity to harm humans’ genetics and could possibly lead to global warming. On top of being harmful, it could explode. If this were to happen, many of us would be gone and it would alter the means of life that are…
