USA giving up nuclear energy why?
by Sameer on Jun 20, 2008 05:34 AM

1. Americans are smart people
2. It is expensive
3. US has no uranium- gets uranium from Russia
4. Safety- both terrorist attacks and natural calamities like earth quake
5. Other alternatives available
6. Nightmare to dispose Radioactive waste products
7. requires huge amount of water to cool
8. Nuclear power plants have limited life span. Dismantling them is even more difficult than installation.
8. USA thinks ahaead- India is always behind the curve.
