Nuclear Energy
How to make Nuclear Energy:
Nuclear energy is a dangerous type of energy and even more dangerous to make. The process of making nuclear energy is a dangerous journey so get ready. The first step is to mine your uranium Once you have your uranium you place it in a fuel rod inside the nuclear reactor.Next the rods are placed in a water tank The reason why you use uranium is because it easily captures random neutrons floating around.After you put the rods in the water it creates a chain reaction and a lot of heat which turns the water to steam. Next the steam turns the turbine which creates energy Congratulations!You just made nuclear energy but nuclear energy realeses nuclear waste which creates radiation which is bad for any living creature.Be careful!

Benefits of nuclear energy
So, we all know that nuclear energy is not the best, but it has some benefits. For example, it is one of the most low carbon energy sources. It also has one of the smallest carbon footprintandnuclearenergy is one of the answers to the energy gap. In addition it's essential to our response in climate change and greenhouse gas emissions. It is reliable and cost effective Alright, I know that I’m throwing a lot of information at you, but let me tell you something reallycool:thesunisourgreatest source of energy it makes plants grow and keeps our world warm. But where does the sun's energy come from? Okay, so do you want to hear the answer don’t you?! I will inform you that the answer is that the sun’s energy comes from nuclear fusion. So now, do you understand why I’m doing nuclear energy? The sun wouldn’t be alivetherefore wewouldn’tbealive.
