The crisis in Japan is perhaps our generation's most devastating environmental disaster. It raises important questions about the safety and legitimacy of nuclear energy as a power source. We had a small discussion on Friday about this topic and watched a brief video. Today, you will write a letter to the head of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) taking a position on nuclear energy: are you for or against it? In your response you must use at least two sources of information. One of those sources will be the notes you took on Friday. Another will be what you find today. You will cite your source (from today) based on the brief instruction in the beginning of class today. The minimum length of this letter should be ten sentences.
