CHAPTER 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING NUCLEAR ENERGY AS AN ALTERNATIVE POWER SOURCE: THE PHILIPPINE SETTING The study is all about the prospects of Nuclear energy as an alternative source of power in the Philippines. The country is experiencing high-cost payment in electricity bills in the past years and tend to even grow more costly. Since the topic is Nuclear energy‚ the study as well will take up the future perspectives of the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant as the main reactor or will just resemble

I believe that "Nuclear energy is NOT the best way to meet the ever-increasing energy needs of the planet." We would like to define the term the energy needs‚ and in this debate it will only apply to the electricity energy needs of the planet. There are four main arguments that we would like to state. Firstly‚ the radioactive waste generated by nuclear power plants lasts FOREVER. It is a deadly legacy to give to our children and there is no safe place to store it. The Nuclear Age Peace Foundation
