The Environmental Impact Of Nuclear Power Plants With A Focus On Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Plant And How CO2 And CO2e Contribute To Climate Change
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
Despite the vast power generating technology improvements humans have designed and implemented over the centuries, we must always keep in mind the impacts these technologies can potentially have on the natural environment. Although considered to be one of the best alternatives to fossil fuels, nuclear power plants should still be examined for their environmental impacts. Based on a case study of the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant located in Calvert County, Maryland. This paper demonstrates the environmental impact of nuclear power plants and discusses the importance of Best Management Practices (BMP) of greenhouse gases.
