  1. Nuclear power By, Brandi-Lee Getson

  2. Nuclear power is: • People think that the energy comes from nuclear reactors in the plants. • But nuclear power is made up of atoms. • Fissile material makes a reaction chain and creates heat. • The heat is used to boil water and make steam.

  3. Nuclear power was invented because: • It wasn’t invented. • It’s part of nature • It was found by a scientist in 1930’s. • It was originally invented to make bombs and then for generating electricity.

  4. Nuclear energy waste: • Theirs a million tons of waste. • Theirs a thousand tons of waste around plants. • This is caused by the make of nuclear energy and nuclear bombs. • People are worried about this.

  5. Nuclear power is used because: • Nuclear energy is known to be quite damage to living cells. • Billions of microscopic explosions occur every second.

  6. Nuclear power is cared for by: • Radioactive materials are added to the air, land, and water. • The government puts dispersion and dilution in the water and air.

  7. Nuclear power plants are found: • There are numerous numbers of power plants throw out the world. • Such as in North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, west Asia, East Asia, and Russia.

  8. The energy it produces: • Seven percent of the worlds energy. • Seventeen percent of the worlds electricity.

  9. The Advantages of the nuclear power plant is: • Nuclear power uses small amount of the earths coal and oil. • Coal and oil burns pollution in the air. • They use lesser fuel then the fossil burner plants.

  10. The disadvantages of the nuclear power is: • Nuclear power explosions creates radiation. • This can make people sick. • It has waste disposal damage.
