1. Nuclear power boils water to create steam to generate electricity. With the earthquake and tsunami in Japan, we have seen one of the worst things that can happen using nuclear power.

2. Drilling for oil to run our country, and to drive to the market with the BP oil disaster in the Gulf waters, we have seen one of the worst things that can happen when drilling for oil.

You might have to write a letter or something, or cut back on energy usage.

Or you might have to run as fast as you can.
