Being Clear about Nuclear!

Greetings ladies and gentlemen, it is a pleasure, as it is an honour, to have you pleasantly scrolling through this blog. Before we march to the bottom of this post, allow me to introduce myself;
I am Lamni, an engineering student in Malaysia,
And I am here to present to you the solution to the world's energy crisis,
NUCLEAR ENERGY!


For many decades, nuclear energy has been the subject of many debates.Although it has an extremely high potential for generating energy, it also has the the potential to be a source of destruction. Sceptics argue that it is just not worth the risk to harness nuclear energy. Their argument revolves around nuclear accidents, the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings and a multitude of other negative nuclear effects. However, we fail to forget that nuclear energy is just as a tool, wield it perfectly and it will fulfill its destiny, missuse it and it shall bring calamities. And with around 440 nuclear reactors worldwide, we will definitely need to wield this resource very cautiously.

We do not need to look far to observe the reason of nuclear energy's stubborn advances into human civilisation. In Malaysia itself, we are faced with mounting energy problems.
Did you know;
  • More than 55% of Malaysia's electricity is generated from gas, which supply is getting ever depleted and prices ever higher?
  • Coal that Malaysia uses for electricity generation are 100% imported from other countries?
  • Malaysia's energy demand is ever rising and supply is probarbly unable to keep up?
Dear ladies and gentlemen,
We need a solution to the problem, a cure to the malady, a guiding light in these darkened times!
In future posts, I will spread before you the facts about the importance of implementation of nuclear power on a much wider scale. However, I am not here to propagate lies about nuclear power, but the true facts, the pros and the cons, in an argumentative manner. And remember, the path forward for meeting the world's energy demands, is in your hands.


Till then, have a brighter day ahead!
