This question seems to come from an opposition group. Not knowing the politics in Wisconsin leads to a technical reply only. Your question would be better addressed to a political forum.

From the technical viewpoint, if your electricity company wants to build nuclear, has a suitable site, and uses the best available modern design for the plant, there is no reason not to build it. In any case the NRC must oversee it and give a licence to operate, which should reassure you.

However I know that wherever in the world a nuclear plant is proposed, there will be an opposition group set up to try to stop it.

How do nuclear power plants destroy the world?

Nuclear power plants do not destroy the world. While there are risks associated with nuclear power, such as accidents and radioactive waste disposal, when operated safely and responsibly, nuclear power can provide a reliable source of clean energy. Stringent regulations and safety measures are in place to minimize these risks and ensure the safe operation of nuclear power plants.


Is nuclear power a safe form of energy?

Nope. Nuclear power is very enviromentally friendly and very efficient, but accidents can cause great damages. For instance, one of the major problems with the tsunami in Japan was all the nuclear plants that were destroyed.


What continents have the most nuclear power plants?

Europe and North America have the most nuclear power plants. France has the highest concentration of nuclear power plants in Europe, while the United States has the highest number of nuclear power plants in North America.

Nuclear power plants are designed with safety features to prevent accidents and limit the release of radiation. While accidents can still occur, the risk of a catastrophic event is much lower than with nuclear weapons, which are intentionally designed to cause destruction on a large scale.


How is a nuclear power plant safe?

Nuclear power plants have multiple safety features in place to prevent accidents, such as redundancies in cooling systems, containment structures, and strict regulatory oversight. Reactors are also designed to shut down automatically in case of a malfunction. Additionally, ongoing inspections and maintenance help ensure the safe operation of the plant.
