Nuclear energy is one of the main ways cities and even major countries such as France create electricity to supply their cities. Although there are many places using the method to generate electricity, there are many benefits and disadvantages to this method. To start off with, the main and obvious benefit of nuclear energy is the ability to supply cities with a abundance of electricity fairly easily. Another advantage to nuclear energy is that is can renewed since uranium is a man-made element. Other than these benefits, nuclear energy doesn't pollute the Earth as much as other forms of obtaining energy such as fossil fuels. Nuclear power plants are cheap to manage and run and they are reliable too. They can run for a year uninterrupted unlike solar or wind power plants.
Although nuclear energy might seem like the best form of energy, there are some cons to this method of obtaining electricity. One very big disadvantage is that it isn't easy to clean up afterwards. The used uranium can't just be thrown into a landfill, since it is radioactive and dangerous, thus making it very expensive to clean afterwards Another con to this is that there have been many accidents in nuclear power plants such as the one in Japan when a tsunami and an earn earthquake hit it. This left many hurt and it made many sick. All of these contribute in deciding whether or not this for of electricity is a good way to supply a city or not. Overall, this is a very good way as long as we are safe and careful when creating the electricity.
