Nuclear Energy: Does It Make Sense for the Environment.

Nuclear Energy is the form of energy that can be used to create

electrical energy and it is the largest source of free energy in the U.S. and
some people think it’s not good for the environment and can cause a lot of
problems to society and the wildlife. And Vice President Scott Peterson talks
about the benefits of Nuclear energy and how it can help the environment
and the plants and how it reduces pollution but Kelly Kissock thinks that
Nuclear energy in the other hand is bad and can cause a lot of problems to
the plants and it can harm the environment and how terrorists can be
attracted to Nuclear energy and how it can affect the people. I’ve found
the Kelly Kisscok argument is indeed more valid than Scott’s for multiple
reasons.

First, Kelly’s argument is more valid because she used more than one appeal
to reach the readers. At first she used emotional appeal because She wrote,
“told us about global warming and how terrorists can get attracted to
nuclear energy”. And she used logical appeal and She wrote , “about the
Chernobyl explosion that killed many people and that had hundreds of
thousands of injured and illnesses”.

However Kelly refuses nuclear energy she is still right because she gave
info about how nuclear energy is bad and how nuclear power plants make
attractive targets for terrorists. And a disaster caused by sabotage or
attack would cause great harm to people and the environment. Another
problem for the environment is the spent fuel from nuclear power plants,
which remains toxic for thousands of years.

I’ve found that Kelly’s argument is more valid than Petersons because she
gives more facts about how nuclear energy can affect plants and humans and
how it can gives serious problems to the society and how terrorists can use

these dangerous nuclear energy to create bombs to kill people.
