核エネルギーは地球温暖化の有望な解決策か

Is núclear energy a víable solution to global warming? 

Depending on what we are, the answers may well vary, and they all make sense, but in my view, núclear power is no more the solution to global warming. Now let me explain the details.     

First, núclear power plants emit more heat than fossil fuels, which heats up seawater and exacerbates global warming. And, the warmed seawater itself releases carbon dioxide, making the situation even worse. As it is, the UN Sustainable Development Goals have listed “promoting clean energy,” but núclear energy is not listed among them.     

Next, I understand some may argue that using núclear power reduces greenhouse gas emissions on the bottom line. Certainly, it may sound plausible, but as it is, this is a complicated matter. Because many energy companies own núclear plants, and support pro-nuclear research to promote the industry, resulting in “a conflict of interest.” So, it’s difficult to support pro-núclear viewpoints easily.           

In conclusion, as núclear energy is too difficult for humans to handle, we should be skeptical about its ecological value, and look for more sustainable energy options. Thank you for your attention. [180 Words Type-O]
