Becoming “green” is becoming more popular, so is the change for energy. Wind and solar power are a lot cleaner and kinder to the environment, having nuclear energy is an alternative to consider. Pennsylvania had the first commercial power plant to go online; and the Bureau of Labor Statistics states that working in a nuclear facility is one of the safest places to work. The nuclear industry has produced 19.8 percent of all energy resources for this past year thus far. In France, 80 percent of all their power is produced by nuclear power.
