Costa, H. (2023, March 2). Nuclear energy. National Geographic. https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/nuclear-energy/
Nuclear energy can be use to create electricity, but it must release an atom first once. During the process that is called nuclear fission, atoms are split to release the nuclear energy. Nuclear reactors and power plants are machines that can control the nuclear fission to produce electricity. The type of fule that the reactor uses is the elements is uranium
What I learned about this article was what nuclear power is and how it works. Also the amount of power plants our country has. The article also talks about how nuclear energy is powered and what is in the energy.
Georges, G. (2023, February 9). Is nuclear energy critical in solving climate change? CA
This seems like a complex process of producing energy. Although from what I have heard, it seems effective. Is nuclear power as clean as solar and wind power? Do you think it is the best renewable energy source?
I think nuclear power is clean but it also releases toxic waste which could mean that is can be clean power but it still can affect us. I think that it could be the best renewable energy source but we do not know if it can affect us even worse.
