Nuclear Energy is a Better Choice for Meeting Increasing Demand IELTS Writing Task 2

Fission is the process via which nuclear energy is produced. This process involves a uranium atom that is split and the produced heat is used to run a turbine. Nuclear energy is a renewable source; that is to say, the energy once used can be reused benefitting as there is less wastage of energy, unlike traditional sources (fossil fuels, oil, petrol, etc.). Thus it minimizes carbon release and less heat is trapped inside the Earth, hence doesn’t contribute aggressively in global warming.

One of the major disadvantages of integrating nuclear energy as the main source of energy is the creation of radioactive waste, which is a serious threat to humanity and the environment. However, nuclear plants are constructed under the supervision of experts and are fully scientific. But still, there is the possibility of accidents as in 1986 Chornobyl witnessed a nuclear disaster losing hundreds of lives and the radioactive rays affected many generations of Chornobyl.

To conclude, I would say that nuclear energy is definitely a better choice for meeting demands. However, it should be handled with care. Accidents involving nuclear energy can cause devastating impacts. 

The call for multilateral groups to find an alternative for non-renewable resources has risen in the last few decades. The other renewable resources such as solar energy or hydro energy are environment friendly. But the problem with them is they are not conducive for every country and they are more or less pragmatic to a region-specific. This, sparks the bulb of Nuclear energy, nuclear is unpopular for destruction, yet, there exists the constructive use of such a destructive resource. That is diverting the nuclear content for civilian use such as medical purposes or Nuclear energy.

Nuclear energy has the epitome of advantages with respect to Climate preservation such as; the nuclear in the processing stage does not emit any carbon or any greenhouse gasses which is a complementary phenomenon in the case of non-renewable resources. Thus, helps in combating the challenge of rising global temperatures. It is pertinent to note that, as solar energy, wind energy or hydro energy are not inexpensive and still cannot be practically applied to all regions, so they are region specific. While on the other hand nuclear plants can be built anywhere in the world thus the influx of nuclear energy is more than that of other renewable resources.

The devastating destruction is the other side of the coin. Nuclear accidents or deliberate use in weapons can be a threat to human existence. And also radioactive waste is a major challenge to dispose of the waste is highly troublesome.

Thus nuclear energy is even the best possible alternative resource for energy, owing to many reasons, the usage of the same shall be under the high scientific experts and advanced technology to ensure any kind of accidents.

Nuclear plants don't require much land and due to the paucity of land, owing to rapid globalization and urbanization, nuclear plants have emerged as the best possible answer to this concern. Nuclear energy does not only occupy less space but also produces negligible greenhouse gas, which is problematic though, being manifested in the present modern world in the form of global warming, posing an existential threat to the human race.

Nuclear energy is the fuel of the future; the global superpowers are giving thrust to switching to greener and cleaner resources as Nuclear energy. The rules are being framed by the United Nations for the trade and commerce of uranium. But it is to be jotted down that the enrichment of uranium from civilian-grade to military-grade was often done by notorious countries in the past. This act poses threat to many countries leading to rising insecurity of the countries primarily of its periphery states. And the possibility of an arms race increases thus making the world unstable.

The modern multilateral groupings should architect the framework of the misuse of uranium, and also add provisions of the safe disposal of nuclear waste. Nuclear energy can be proven a blessing to mankind by saving the mother planet Earth from the wrath of global warming.
