The use of nuclear power should be continued in the US. According to CNN, there are over 104 operating commercial nuclear reactors in the US. The US utilizes 20% of nuclear power for electricity. Nuclear power is an effective and efficient source of energy. It may be expensive to construct nuclear power plants, but fuel cost is low. Nuclear power also provides energy security, there is less need to buy foreign oil, and unlike solar and wind energy, which rely on natural phenomena, nuclear power can distribute large quantities of power for long periods of time. Additionally, nuclear power is more environmentally-friendly compared to other energy sources. It has 50-100 times lower greenhouse gas emissions than coal. Nuclear power may impose risks, especially after the Japan earthquake, but some improvements in building nuclear reactors are being made to ensure safety.

here are some of the ways in which chemical and nuclear reactions differ.
