There seem to be three main strands to this: one that conventional energy sources are mainly in unsettled areas of the world and therefore possibly unsure in the future, two that nuclear power does not contribute to global warming, and three that many existing nuclear plants are quite old and will eventually have to be decommissioned, probably due to concerns about pressure vessel integrity, and therefore will need to be replaced by new plants unless more coal is to be used.
One use is in nuclear power plants to produce steam and turn turbines to generate electricity.Nuclear bombs ^.^
Heat from the nuclear reaction changes water to steam.

because it doesn't create pollution and it is greener than coal and nuclear power plants :P
Uranium, typically enriched to ~3% Uranium-235.

Yes, Obama has come out in favor of building new, safe, nuclear power plants.
Some people do not agree with Japan building and using nuclear power plants because twenty percent of the worlds earthquakes occur in Japan which causes dangers for the people living in Japan.

In China, approximately two power stations are being built each week.
Britain does have nuclear power plants.
Nuclear power plants emit significantly fewer greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuel power plants. On average, nuclear plants emit around 2-3 million tons less CO2 per year for each gigawatt of power produced compared to coal-fired power plants. This reduction helps to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Coal and nuclear power plants are both used to generate electricity, but they differ in terms of energy source and environmental impact. Coal power plants burn coal to produce heat, while nuclear power plants use nuclear reactions to generate heat. Nuclear power plants produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to coal plants, but they create radioactive waste that needs to be carefully stored. Coal power plants are cheaper to build and operate, but they contribute to air pollution and climate change.
Well their are no disadvantages to nuclear plants, if your using them for nuclear power, as nuclear power is the safest type of energy in modern times. However disadvantages of nuclear weapons include well the ending of the planet, the possibility of it being stolen by terrorists or even it being spied on for another nation so it can create nuclear weapons.
