Write an essay to explain your position on whether or not nuclear power should be continued in the US. Support your position with specific reasons and justifications.

If you wrote that the risks are too great, did you support this with the risk of environmental contamination, human health hazards due to exposure to radioactive materials, and the need for long-term storage of nuclear waste? If you wrote that the benefits outweigh risks, did you support this with the efficiency of energy conversion, safe operation potential, lack of greenhouse gas emissions, and abundance of uranium?
