Weighing nuclear energy and fossil fuels base on the above factors, nuclear energy represents a preferable option

Uranium which is one of the most readily available source of energy is the major energy of nuclear energy and it's renewable and can be reprocessed.

While Fossil Fuels are non-renewable.

Both nuclear and fossil fuel power plants produce electricity the same way but the resources of fossil fuels is limited.

Why do some countries place limits on the number of terms that a president can serve while other do no?
d1i1m1o1n [39]
It depends on what type of government the country is. Take an example, Great Britain (England, Britain, whatever it is called.) is a monarchy, which means that they have royal families... like how we have the president. (in the U.S at least) It can also be dependent on what the country decides to do, or the president decides. I hope this helps!
