Coal mining (31) mining disasters,

28、 and the pollution from coal combustion results (32) some ten thousand premature deaths in this country each year. Oil rigs explode, sometimes spectacularly, and so, on occasion, (33) natural-gas pipelines. Moreover, burning any kind of fossil fuel produces carbon-dioxide (34) , which, (35) changing

29、 the worlds climate, alter the chemistry of the oceans. Among those who argue most passionately for nuclear power these days are some (36) , who see the uncertain threat that it presents as (37) to the certain harm of climate change. An objective comparison might (38) suggest that a well-designed an

More than two dozen reactors in the U. S. have aboveground storage pools (46) to those that have failed at Fukushimathe only dif

35、ference is that the American pools contain far more waste than their Japanese (47) . In a conference call with reporters the other day, David Lochbaum, a nuclear engineer and the director of the Nuclear Safety Project of the Union of Concerned Scientists, called the risks currently posed by spent-fu

36、el pools in the U. S. about as high as you could (48) make them. As the disaster in Japan illustrates, so starkly and so (49) , people have a hard time planning for events that they dont want to imagine happening. But these are (50) the events that must be taken into account in a realistic assessmen
