Nuclear power


By Àlex Santomà


Nuclear power is energy produced by the nuclear reactions that take place in nuclear elements such as Plutonium-239 and Polonium-210. We use this energy, which is really immense, to produce electric energy.

But there are two opinions on this matter:

- People who are against nuclear power plants, because they create a lot of residues that are damaging the environment. They think that is not necessary to use this type of dangerous energy because nature can provide sufficient energy to satisfy all our needs.

- People who are for energy nuclear plants, because with only one plant we can produce as much energy as more than five wind farms, and this means that it is cheaper. Also, nuclear plants are very safe and not dangerous if they are regulated and maintained in good conditions. You could live next to a nuclear plant and none of your family would have any problems. Furthermore, nuclear graveyards don't create any risk for the people living nearby. And of course, at least in Spain, without nuclear plants we couldn't use our refrigerator or watch TV.

So, I think that there are more reasons to continue producing nuclear energy than to end the so-called Nuclear Revolution.


Facebook Forever



By Helena López Fortuny


Facebook is the perfect social network for most teenagers nowadays. But, is it really perfect?

No, it isn't. Facebook is a social network that allows you to post your personal information, photos and feelings. Other people who have a Facebook account can consult your profile, with everything you have published.

And, what happens if you want to leave Facebook? The web page has an option to close your

Facebook account, but it is a trap. Your Facebook doesn't disappear, it's still saving your information, and sometimes, this information is used and you don't know anything about it, it's very dangerous for you.

So, think twice before opening a Facebook account, and if you are sure that you want to have Facebook forever, do it.
