Advantages of nuclear energy over wind or solar energy

[Casey]

I can't agree more with all of you against nuclear energy. Not only is it dangerous and not clean green energy, but it is very costly to upkeep and to keep things running safely.

The power source to upkeep nuclear energy needs to be replaced every few years and it costs so much to do that. Plus you can't safely dispose of the power sources once they are no good and they can cause serious damage to people. Just take a lesson from Japan. Nuclear energy is just a quick fix to an energy supply problem, but it also comes with serious consequences. Using natural resources is what we need to solely rely upon for energy.

I completely agree with "Ryan", Solar power, wind power, geothermal power, hybrid and electric cars, and aggressive energy efficiency are climate solutions that are safer, cheaper, faster, more secure, and less wasteful than nuclear power.

i agree, I think solar energy is the way forward! If people think they may be expensive investments, in theory they are really cheaper in the long run as a lot of money is saved!
