It is often claimed that nuclear energy is something we cannot do without. We live in a _44_ society where there is an enormous demand for commercial products of all kinds. Moreover, an increase in industrial production is considered to be one
solution to the problem of mass unemployment. Such an increase presumes an abundant and cheap energy supply.
Many people believe
that
nuclear
energy provides
an
inexhaustible and _45_ source of power and that it is therefore essential for an industrially developing society. There are a number of other advantages in the use of nuclear energy. Firstly,

sources of fuel. However, opponents of nuclear
energy point out that nuclear power stations bring a direct threat not only to the environment but also to civil rights.

power. In the long run, environmentalists argue, nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology to an extent which could _50_ the destruction of the human race. Thus, if we wish to survive, of the case against nuclear energy outlined which assumes a continual it
is doubtful

and consumer demands. _52_,

arguments on both sides carefully, it seems there are good economic and ecological reasons for sources of energy _53_ nuclear power.
