Nation States Issues : Power Problems Need Bright Solution

Power Problems Need Bright Solution

The oldest power station in NATIONSNAME suffered a catastrophic failure last night, plunging a third of NATIONSNAME’s national power supply grid into darkness. There is no debate that it needs to be replaced, but the question is with what?

 

I’ve encountered with these choices

1. “The solution is clear,” says environmental activist Chastity Plath. “Wind turbines and solar power stations are the cleanest there are. We must switch power production to forms of renewable energy, which will never run out. The only minor problems are that wind farms will take up a great deal of space and of course we can’t exactly rely on the weather. It isn’t as though we control it. But think of how much healthier people will be without all that pollution!”

 

2. “Wind power? Solar collectors? Bah! Have you ever wondered when the least amount of strain is placed on the national grid? WHEN THE SUN IS SHINING!” exclaims Southern NATIONSNAME Electra official Gregory Laine. “We need power under our control, and cheaply. Coal has been the cheapest and most abundant power source for ages. We don’t need this airy fairy wind malarky when we have cheap and reliable power available for all. True, pollution will be a bit on the heavy side but I’m sure that’s only a minor problem, with how well funded our health system is!”

 

3. “Now the way I see it is that it’s either green, expensive, and sprawling; or compact, polluting and cheap. Wouldn’t it be nice if we had the best of both worlds? Well, we can!” claims fission technician Efthamia Freedom. “Nuclear power is reliable, clean, and although it isn’t cheap, it won’t break the bank. There is a risk of deadly meltdown, but this is relatively small, and the only people who could be against this are anti-nuclear protesters, but what do we care about those tree-hugging hippies?”

 

4. Dismiss the issue
