The threat of nuclear weapons

Arranged by : Dea Salsabila, Nim (4221121006), English For Physics

Some countries are developing their nuclear weapons these days, and it
becomes a serious threat to the world peace. But it is undeniable that nuclear
technology is clean for the environment and offers low-cost energy source.

To begin with, even though nuclear power could be used as an alternative


source of energy, but some parties could misuse the technology. Nuclear power
plants can be used as propaganda by some countries, whereas they will tell the
public that they only use the technology for power generation purposes. But, the
public would never know what lies behind their plants, as they might be
developing an advanced nuclear weapons.

Although nuclear power plants are safe to the environment and cheaper in
cost, many people still believe that they are a serious threat to the surrounding
areas. Some countries have tried to manage their nuclear power plants cautiously,
but sometimes unexpected events happen and cause a serious effect on the
surrounding areas. For example, in the year 2010 a tsunami had struck one of the
country's power plants, and as a consequence, it caused a leakage in the plants and
many casualties were found. The history tells us how the weapons have destroyed
millions of lives and have caused severe damage to our environment.

In conclusion, although nuclear technology could be used as a clean and


cheap source of energy, I strongly disagree with it. some countries might secretly
use it as a weapon. they could still be a threat for our civilisations, as we could
never predict that any natural disaster could hit these power plants anytime.
