Does nuclear energy have a part to play in the society

I think that nuclear energy has a very important part to play in our society although it may be very dangerous. Nuclear energy has its good and bad.

Nuclear energy can be used to generate precious energy. For example, in Japan, nuclear energy provides up to one third of the electricity. Electricity is now an important part of our lives as it allows us to do many different things. One of the biggest reason why we need electricity is for rest and relaxation. Surely, we cannot survive if there is no television , or hand phone for us to watch and use. Our lives will become very bored. Electricity also plays an important role for human communication. The telephone is so convenient for us to contact someone else. Another use of nuclear energy is to make lethal weapons which can be used to protect your country against attacks. It gives the citizens a sense of security.

However, there is a price to pay. If a natural disaster occurs, it may cause total chaos in the country. Take Japan as an example. They had a powerful nuclear plant with four nuclear reactors. One moment Japan was flourishing economically, and all of a sudden, there was chaos. Building the nuclear plant has its disadvantage too.

In a nutshell, one must take safety precautions when building the nuclear plant so as to prevent the disadvantages of building a nuclear plant as mentioned above. If not, the nuclear energy can bring great benefit to everyone.
