In the wake of all of the trouble that the nuclear power plant in Fukushima has been having, America has begun to worry about the safety of our nuclear plants as well.
There are thirteen nuclear power plants in America with the same exact design as the one in Fukushima, two of which are in New Jersey (the state I live in). ((＞д＜))
It makes me worry about what would happen if a natural disaster as bad as the earthquake that hit Japan occurred here.
I hear there is a fault line in the Atlantic Ocean. I live close to that Ocean. New Jersey is also a very small state. If one of the two power plants had a meltdown, the entire state could be affected.
Hopefully we will at least improve our regulations on our nuclear plants.
