You should know that the nuclear power plants consist of nuclear reactors. These reactors use uranium rods as fuel and heat is generated by the process of nuclear fission.
These power plant are set up by government because of the following values:
1-Nuclear power plants are more efficient and a large amount of electricity can be produced from them.
2-There is a reduced dependence on fossil fuels (like coal) and other non-renewable sources.
3-The main advantage of nuclear power is that it doesn’t produce greenhouse gases and other poisonous gases like oxides of sulphur and nitrogen.
(a) The people of the area are aware of this technology. They know it's advantages and disadvantages. They know that nuclear waste are radioactive and emit radiations which are dangerous.
(b) People are demanding safety due to the following:
1.Radiation hazard is always a disadvantage in application of nuclear energy. Radioactive wastes are very dangerous for health and environment. Once it enters in body, it persists for generation to generation.
2. The nuclear fuels used in nuclear reactors can be stolen or diverted to the production of nuclear weapons.
