Nuclear Energy - Is the World Ready For it?
by Angelina Ong
Let's face it, whenever a country talks about wanting to develop nuclear energy, thoughts would spring in the heads of world political leaders whether the country is innocently developing an alternative energy, or wanting to find a loophole somewhere to build nuclear weapons.
Incidentally, last weekend's headline was China being hard-pressed against a decision to support US against Iran's nuclear program.
The U.S., its European allies and United Nations inspectors suspect Iran is trying to develop the means to build a nuclear weapon under the guise of a civilian atomic-energy program. Iran says its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes. Source: Business Week
On the other hand, at the turn of this week we see Obama pushing forward a nuclear program as a clean energy source. Can we trust that it is solely for the purpose of green energy, if we cannot trust Iran's proposal?
Only time will tell, but for any mature politician with a knowledge of history, we learnt how devastating and damaging nuclear weapons could be, evident since World War II. If we did not learn the lesson then, we will pay it with the lives of our children.
There are many clean energy available in this world, but why nuclear energy? This atomic substance, we know, can be friendly, yet may turn into the world's enemy if it is misused. Do we want to risk a leak of the radiative substance, melting the face of our children, or do we want to find other alternative sources such as solar, wind, water, bio-energy as alternative sources for green technology?
The answers remain in the hearts of normal civilians in this world, people who could not make a decision even though the world is talking so much about democracy. It is more of a demo-crazy, and there should not be any double-standards. If one country is not allowed nuclear programs, there should not be another that is allowed. And we wonder why Israel needs nuclear energy, yet experts say that it will be in 2030. Why not now? Is there a political agenda behind it?
