Although using nuclear power as a source of energy has benefits like this‚ the danger posed by using nuclear power is very eminent. This was demonstrated in the recent Fukushima daiichi nuclear reactor crisis wherein the reactors as of March 24‚ 2011 at Fukushima emitted 30‚000 to 110‚000 TBq of Iodine 131 much higher compared to Chernobyl’s 760 PBq or 400 kg of I-131‚ 85 PBq Cs-137 (Shimbun‚ 2011).

1. Abstract The earthquake which took place on March 11‚ 20111 in the Tohuku District‚ Japan triggered a massive tsunami which eventually caused a nuclear power plant outbreak. The tsunami‚ 14-metres in height struck the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant‚ which is located in the towns of Okuma and Futaba in the Fukushima Prefecture. This resulted in loss of power to the reactors of Units 1‚ 2 and 3.Along with this damage‚ the cooling system failed to work and there were hydrogen explosions which ended

The United States is the worlds largest producer of nuclear power‚ accounting for more than 30 percent of the worldwide nuclear generation of electricity. Nuclear power is also among the verge of the most expensive‚ construction on a new power plant in Georgia skyrocketed past the projected expenses by $737 million to nearly $7 billion. In 2012 the approval of the new power plants in Georgia and South Carolina were among the first approved in over 30 years. While these approvals were a major setback

Not only did the tsunami do enough damage but it disabled the cool down of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plants due to insufficient cooling which led to a shutdown on March 12th 2011. As seen in figure 5‚ the power plants overheated and went into flames releasing dangerous radioactive materials into the atmosphere and Pacific Ocean and
