thumbs up if this got your homework done!

Is there no audio?

[thejameskan]

interesting video and very informative

@migsluck1 natural yes, but the scale is a lot smaller than a nuclear power plant, and this is for legendary9898, alpha waves are fine, no harm there

[migsluck1]

@legendary9898 I have no idea where you got your information from but they have no idea what they're talking about. My cousin just did a presentation in New Mexico in support of nuclear fission and I can assure you they've already had the means of containing radiation for quite some time. Quick fyi, radioactivity is occurring RIGHT NOW in every corner of the planet. It's a natural occurrence ;)

@WhiKeDz nah i studied!

thanks for the video :)

@nascarracer1 wow... thats not very nice...

[ellojellofly]

@legendary9898 yeah it really stinks :( if only it was able to be contained extremely well, it might be much safer and much more sustainable, but as of now its just dangerous.

[legendary9898]

Sorry, I hate nuclear energy beacuse It pollutes the environment and makes people sick. Also alpha, beta and gama radiat,on is very dangerous for humans, animals and plants.

@DGFerro

Some also continuously pump the water from a river/lake, use it as tertiary coolant and then dump it back in the river

everyone who diliked this is from a third world country
