How does a nuclear power plant affect the people living around it?

It provides them with power, without polluting the environment like a fossil fuel power plant would.


How many wind turbines would it take for it to power the electricity a power plant does?

A standard power station produces something like 500 megawatts. A standard wind turbine produces about 5 megawatts.


What is a sentence for the word power?

When the power to a home goes out, no electrical appliances will work, Some people like to have power over others. You have the power to decide what you do with your life.


Is it dangerous to live near a power station with a new baby?

I would not recommend living near a power station because of the increase in "dirty electricity" and/or unfriendly electromagnetic frequencies you would have more exposure to. However, we don't always have a choice on where to live. I am moving near a power station myself this year -- but will not say more than a year because of the power station. Some things you can do to help alleviate problems from living near an electrical power plant include "grounding" or "earthing" technologies. The Earth has a natural frequency of its own that when we are connected to it -- whether with bare feet or with grounding technology (such as the grounding sheets and grounding or earthing mats available at different places online including LongevityWarehouse dotcom) the harmful electromagnetic frequences (EMFs) are pulled or pushed off your body. I use a grounding sheet that I keep pinned to the top of the top sheet on my bed using a few safety pins around the sides. It has a connector that goes into the grounding hole in the electrical socket and when two green lights go on it is letting you know that the grounding wire is working. For people without grounding wires set up in their homes and sockets, you can get a "grounding rod" which you insert into the ground next to your home, and snake the (probably copper) write up through your bedroom window to your grounding sheet, which is preferably made of cotton that is threaded also with silver or copper threads. I also use a grounding matt that looks a bit like a black rubber placemat under my feet when I am at my computer. In this way by having at least one bare foot on that mat all the time, I am protecting my body very much from the harmful EMFs -- whether I am near a power station or not. I highly recommend that if you do live near a power station -- and even if you don't -- that you consider getting a grounding sheet for your baby. It is also very likely to help your baby to sleep better! I hope that helps. (Note: I am not getting any kickback for telling you this. I am telling you the truth as I know it.)

Is fusion energy the same a nuclear energy?

Sort of. Fusion energy is the power of the sun and hydrogen bombs, lots of people would like to use it as a local power source, but so far we've only figured out hot to use fission power in power plants.
