核能 (hé néng): 원자력

After the earthquake in Japan, many countries began to reconsider the safety of nuclear energy and suspended the operation of some nuclear power plants.

As global warming becomes more severe, nuclear energy, as a low-carbon energy source, has regained favor among some environmentalists.

The Chinese government plans to steadily develop nuclear energy under the premise of ensuring safety, in order to reduce dependence on coal.

Although nuclear power generation is highly efficient, the nuclear waste it produces is very difficult to handle and requires long-term supervision.

Against the backdrop of energy shortages, some experts suggest increasing investment in nuclear energy, but public concern about nuclear accidents still exists.
