[Extra] The advantages of nuclear power

Focusing on the favor opinion 

on nuclear power

Nuclear power is required.

   The first reason for this is the problem of depletion of major energy resources such as oil and coal. On the basis of the 2000, reserve-production ratio worldwide of the major resources are as follows. 30-40 years '48 natural gas, in the 45-60 years uranium, 10-15 years zinc, copper, lead, oil is a 200-year coal. However, since there is a tendency that consumption of major human resources has increased more and more reserve-production ratio can also be sooner than this. To provide for this, we are developing alternative energy, but it is not possible to use the energy resources efficiently as nuclear power. Because Land size are needed if you want to build a power plant nuclear power plant, less than the power plant of alternative energy other, it is possible that in the alternative energy, and see that the lowest electricity production unit cost of nuclear facilities . Then, based on the scientific fact that the smallest carbon footprint of nuclear power plant and the basis of the above, only nuclear power is environmentally friendly, meet the three stability of economy and supply and demand It can be seen to be a the best way possible.

   Secondly, because of the advantages nuclear exports on the country. Currently, it succeeded in Korea Electric Power consortium to order United Arab Emirates total of $ 40 billion (about 47 trillion yen) scale (UAE) nuclear power plant project. Canada and the United States, France, Russia, is recorded in primary exporter of sixth in the world after, such as Japan, orders scale of this time, South Korea, the project of the plant were ordered in the world market, particularly recent ones, by this I found in the largest among them. As a result, our country, is to provide a new competitive edge in the world market, you're going to be the value of the national brand by this rises. And government, are expected to is that by the orders of this time, to earn $ 20 billion in such exchange of the generator $ 20 billion construction orders, and operation, new employment effect also reach 10 million people, which By growing the economy of our country, and it is possible that unemployment problem to solve some.

   Third, we can by nuclear power is present, and supplied while minimizing environmental pollution electricity essential to modern life. In recent years, one of the causes that has emerged as the main culprit of environmental pollution is carbon dioxide, but nuclear power is because the least amount of emissions of carbon dioxide even when you are developing alternative energy other.

   Fourth, nuclear power, there is no oil reserves as of our country, countries dependence on foreign resources is high to have autonomous resources. And, as the case South Korea received orders for nuclear power plants in the United Arab Emirates, it is also possible to provide the resources to other countries rather.

   Finally, nuclear power generation, because it can provide comfort and peace to mankind. In modern times, by the scarcity of oil, petroleum or disputes occur. In many cases, conflict in the Middle East also occur when I make sure the cause, if it is because of oil's everyday affairs. Nuclear power is one of the methods can prevent disputes over international oil as described above, thereby providing peace to mankind.
