A nuclear reactor is about to be established in Kerala. What is your reaction to this proposal? Justify.

Nuclear reactor is one of the best sources of energy. The huge amount of energy can be produced which can be further used to generate the electricity. But there are certain problems associated with the establishment of nuclear reactor. According to me they are as follows:

1. The coolant water and low-grade waste from the reactor is going to be dumped in to the sea which will have a severe impact on fish production and will cause water pollution. It may affect the food security of the entire southern Tamil Nadu and southern Kerala.

2. Large number of people needs to be displaced in order to set up the nuclear reactor.

3. If in case the nuclear disaster happens then the effect of radiations will be in a very large area, and it may cause many diseases and disabilities.

4. I will be very difficult to evacuate the areas near the reactor during nuclear disaster, thus many lives will be lost due to radiation.
