 INTRODUCTION
The depletion of fossil
fuel and global warming
Nuclear energy is an
attractive non-fossil
alternative. Why?
Kyshtym accident
Three Miles accident
Chernobyl disaster
Fukushima disaster

Technical issues, cost,

possible ecological damage,
climate change mitigation and
risk assessment must be
considered.
 NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS ARE
EXPENSIVE ALMOST IN ALL STAGES
EXTR
EME Waste storage
Construction
HIGH
CO
Decommissioning Research and
ST development

The costly design safe from extreme natural disasters.

Enormous facilities still pollute the environment.

250,000 years radioactive waste next generations burden

Dependent on subsidy it shifts cost.

FACTS 1950s about 5 years to build
1970s 14 years to build

A new 1,000-megawatt (MW) nuclear

power plant $2 billion and take 5 years
to build.
A new 1,000-MW pulverized coal plant
$1.2 billion and take three to 4 years to
build
A new clean coal plant $1.4 billion and
take 4 years.
Nuclear Negative Effect
on Health

Physically Psychologicall
 Nuclear Effect on Human
Health
Physical Effect
1. Three Mile Island (USA) Disaster:
. Increased Leukaemia risk among
male

2. Chernobyl (Russia) Disaster:

. Long term cancer risk
. Thyroid cancer among children
Psychological Effect
3. Fukushima (Japan) Disaster:
. major depression
. post-traumatic stress disorder
. poor self-rated health

Why?
. Evacuate from original home
. Living alone
. Separate from friend and family
. Adapting to new lifestyle for elderly
. Burden of potential health effect due to
radiation
 Nuclear Catastrophic to
Environment
How?
Refining and mining of toxic material
Radioactive waste
Nuclear power plant accident
1. Fukushima Accident (Japan)
. 80% Radioactive releases into the ocean
. 63 marine species contaminated with
caesium
. Seafloor sediment contaminated with caesium

2. Chernobyl Disaster (Russia)

. Releases of radionuclide like iodine, cesium,
noble gases
and tellurium.
. Water, air, and soil contaminated
. Degradation of pine tree or red forest
 Conclusion
Nuclear Energy Supposed to solve
humanity resource problem but it
destroy the limited resource itself.
It add to humanity problem in term of
Health, cost and environment.
Other more environment friendly and
cheap alternative energy exist like
solar, wind, hydro water, and etc.
Say no to nuclear power
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah's Messenger()said, "If Adam's
son had a valley full of gold, he would
like to have two valleys, for nothing
fills his mouth except dust. And Allah
forgives him who repents to Him."
