First off before anything we need to know what radiation is and radiation is when energy is emitted by subatomic particles as waves. Radiation can be found in many things such as a microwave, x-rays, or even when you’re talking on the phone. This problem is often used in our daily lives such as power plants and cancer treatment (Chemotherapy). Power plants are used in our lives as a power source but if damaged or destroyed it can emit harmful radiation killing blood cells and sickening people in its radius. Just as it sickens people who are affected by the radiation those who use radiation to better themselves as well gets themselves sick. This applies worldwide because of the fact that globally, countries use power plants to power their country. A few months into the 2011 year Japan got hit with natural disasters destroying their power plant and infecting many of those near the power plant and its soil. As well as it leaked into the Pacific Ocean. If anything I suggest we find a safe alternative for these power plants such as solar energy where the radiation use is less. I suggest this because of the fact that there are other ways that energy can be absorbed or used. More information on the leakage can be found by clicking link.

Radiation (SSR)
While reminiscing on the past, I've realized that there was various natural disasters that damaged the countries it hit. I've realized though that radiation is a problem that not only happened in 2011, but as well into this year. Have you ever noticed that Radiation is thought to be a problem worldwide and should avoided because of how dangerous it is.

What do you think we should replace nuclear plants with? This might cheer you up: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/energy/2013/12/131226-utilities-dispute-net-metering-for-solar/.
