Nuclear Ban in New Zealand
There are many international affairs going on all the time, in the past, present and future. A significant affair is when New Zealand became a nuclear-free zone.This had many effects on local and international countries including America, France and the Pacific Islands. The Rainbow Warrior had a huge impact on this law as well. The trading market, environment and immigration were also effected because of the new legislation and clean ways of New Zealand.
Nuclear power is a radioactive chemical reaction that heats water to steam, that is then generated into electrical energy. It was discovered between 1895-1945 with different ideas, theories and experiments covered over that time, and is still being investigated to the present day. Many countries around the world allow nuclear power and weapons, United States, Soviet Union, United Kingdom, France, China, India an North Korea are some of them. Nuclear power is widely depended on to keep some countries running.
There are advantages and disadvantages to using this form of electrical energy. As with any type of power source, it runs the risk of having a bad impact but because of the radioactive chemicals, nuclear power can have a much greater effect. In March 2011 after a devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan, most nuclear power plants automatically shut down. After four days the reaction began to overheat releasing harmful chemicals into the environment and oceans, that will affect generations to come. Mutated butterflies have already been discovered and cancer rates in surrounding countries have increased due to the radiation levels in the atmosphere. The disadvantages seem incomparable compared to the advantages of extremely cheap electricity in third world countries and the chance of no problems occurring.
Nuclear power and weapons have been developed since they were first discovered. For these improvements to be made they have to be tested first and between the years of 1966-1996 the testing area
