hazards happening worldwide and elaborate on the significance of having awareness of such
issues. The researchers are concerned about nuclear energy and power, as well as their effects on
people and the environment. Although many are aware of the widespread information about
different types of environmental problems such as pollution occurring in air, water, soil, etc.,
only a few are familiar with the hazardous repercussions of utilizing nuclear energy and power as
sources of electricity. The research paper's key finding is the knowledge it can impart to readers
as well as the public's awareness of this type of environmental disaster. The study is composed of
six distinct chapters: the executive summary and introduction; a problem-oriented case study;
sources and causes of nuclear hazards; biological and ecological effects of nuclear hazards;
nuclear waste disposal; and, lastly, laws and preventive measures for nuclear hazards. The first
chapter discussed the overall findings of the paper and elucidated the current situations related to
the study. Followed by the nuclear accidents and incidents that caused destruction and
Next, I will explicate the sources or causes of this environmental problem, both man-made and
natural. Fourth, because nuclear hazards can have a negative impact on people's general health,
the researchers wanted to address the negative health and environmental effects that the
phenomenon can have on the environment and its people. Then, the proper nuclear waste
disposal and the categories to be considered to orderly and safely dispose of these kinds of waste.
Finally, the researchers provided different laws, republic acts, and preventive measures that
compared to fossil fuels such as brown coal, coal, oil, biomass, gas, etc. According to Our World
in Data, in comparison to brown coal, coal, oil, and gas, nuclear energy causes 99.9%, 99.8%,
99.7%, and 97.6% fewer deaths. However, nuclear energy and power consumption have been
gradually utilized in other countries since they provide low-carbon electricity and can be run at a
lower cost. In 2021, around 10% of the electricity we use will originate from nuclear power
worldwide. Nevertheless, certain nations rely on it substantially; for example, it supplies more
than 40% of the electricity in Sweden and more than 70% in France.
