Many things support this claim, with only one true major problem

Pro 1: High Energy Generation.

demongods2001 — 2015-04-24 00:43:00 UTC

This process of Nuclear fission, or fusion creates a high amount of energy from the fuel known as Uranium.

Pro 2: Low Cost of Fuel

demongods2001 — 2015-04-24 00:47:14 UTC

Uranium, the main source of fuel, is very cheap to mine.

Pro 3: Creates Less Greenhouse Gases Than Fossil Fuels

demongods2001 — 2015-04-24 00:49:18 UTC

Fossil fuels pollute the atmosphere while nuclear energy creates minimal atmospheric pollutants

pro 4: The Fuel Sources, Uranium, and Plutonium, Are Going To Sustain At Least 70 Years

The One Major Con of Nuclear Energy Is The Waste

Nuclear waste is toxic, hard to dispose of, and damages the environment, and expensive to get red of.

The Other, Less Usual Con Is The Chance of A Nuclear Meltdown

Nuclear meltdowns, kill animals, pollute the surrounding land, and effect the land for quite a while, however many precautions have been made ever since infamous meltdowns such as Chernobyl, or the more recent meltdown in Japan, during the tsunami
