  1. With the recent earthquakes in Japan and the issues with radiation, nuclear power as a whole has been brought into question. Everyone seems to want this efficient method to generate their power but they don't want it in their backyard. As another indicator of the unpopularity of this method of generating energy, The Obama administration in recent years has attempted to even shut down the only spent uranium fuel rod repository that I know of. All of this has led me to wonder "What's exactly going on with nuclear power nowadays?" and more specifically, "What are we doing with all of our radioactive waste?"
