The current events in the world made Germany realize how dangerous it is to have power plants and using nuclear power is not as safe as most people believe. German citiziens went on the streets to protest against nuclear power plants, which made the politicians realize, that they will have to find a different way. As of right now they are shutting down some of the plants to see how it works for them. First, it is only temporary but there is a big chance if it works out to become permanent.
Germany might be the nation we should watch as a good example in these days. What the world should realize is that nobody got the power to prevent natural disasters and in case of a disaster a nuclear power plant can be a even bigger disaster. If it is possible to live without nuclear power at all ? We will see but Germany does have some pretty nice ideas how to replace the nuclear energy with more healthier and safer energy.
Maybe if one day it will be possible for the whole world to get rid of the nuclear power plants and prevent more disasters like Japan, which is still fighting to not have a even worse catastrophe than it already is.
