Hi everyone, my name is mark, and I will talk about nuclear power today. Nowadays, nuclear power has been widely used. In the next few minutes, I will talk about the advantage and disadvantage about the nuclear power.

First of all, let me talk about the first usage of nuclear power. In June 27, 1954, the first nuclear power station was developed in suvia union. After that, the nuclear power station became more and more popular. Now, there are more than 400 of them in the world. Somebody think nuclear power plant can benefit a lot, because that They cost less non-renewable resources and produce more electricity. For example, there are 104 nuclear power stations in use in the U.S. . That can make around 100 billion kilowatt electric a year, which is 20% of all the electric we need to use a year in U.S.. because of that, the U.S. government can save more than 70 billion a year. Also there was nearly 0 pollute of co2 which affect the environment the most. Also, nuclear power can use for military application. For now, the united state navy has 13 aircraft carrier in use and 11 of them are nuclear powered. Compare to the traditional aircraft carrier, the nuclear powered aircraft carrier can carry more things like plane and solider, also they can go faster. And the most important thing, they do not need fuel. For example, one of the most popular aircraft: jorzh Washington can run 25 years without any fuel replacement which means they can go anywhere they want without fuel charging. Additionally, nuclear can be used on submarine. A nuclear powered submarine can be under water for half an year and they can be 400 meters under the water which means the radar can hardly find them. Because of this, the submarine can protect their country and no one can destroy it.

But everything have advantage and disadvantage, now, I want to talk about some serious problem of nuclear power. First of all, I will talk about two serious accident of nuclear power station. Does anyone know what day is today? It’s the 30th anniversary of Chernobyl disaster. In 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power station was explode, that was the most significant accident in the world, because of this accident, about 340 thousand people can not go back to home, about 270 thousand of people get cancer because of the radiation and 93 thousand of them died. The scientist said that the radiation of the Chernobyl nuclear power station will last for 3 million years. Which means the area around Chernobyl will be unsafe to live for 3 million years. And the second nuclear power station accident will talk about is in japan, I think some of you guys know which nuclear power station im talking about. Yes, it’s the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. Its used to be the biggest nuclear power station in the world, but in march 11th, 2011, an hurricane attack the fukushima and the fukushima nuclear power plant was just on the sea shore, suddenly, the fukushima nuclear power plant station has no power to cool down the reactor, so they use the standby application energy, that last 8 hours, but in this period, the government did not let any scientist or solder to fix the electric line, the nuclear power station explode because it was over heated. Because of the explosion, 80 thousand of people was affected. Then, I want to talk about the nuclear weapon. I think the nuclear weapon was a terrible design, if any country us the nuclear weapon, the hole world will be destroyed. I have search on the internet. 94% people think nuclear weapon was a bad design.

So just like what I say, everything have benefit and disadvantage to us, if people can use the nuclear power in a correct way, I think the nuclear power can make more benefit to people, thank you.
