Strong case for nuclear power
There had been a lot of concerns in the past about setting up nuclear power plants in Bangladesh, especially after the earthquakes in Japan which wreaked havoc on their nuclear power plants. At present, the way our population is growing, I believe nuclear energy may be our only option. Nuclear power is very cheap and just a little bit of resource can produce a lot of energy. It was mentioned in CNN and BBC that the accidents in Japan occurred due to human errors and not the earthquakes. I believe we can learn from other people's mistakes so that we don't repeat them. If we follow all the precautions and have qualified and well-trained personnel to maintain the nuclear plants, it's very possible to sustain nuclear power in Bangladesh.
