You may use the words beneficial, detrimental, support, and view and change the word forms if needed. Also, you may refer to the following passage to support your argument.

Nuclear energy comes at a cost. At least that is the position long argued by environmentalists who condemn the power source. Recent events in Japan, at the Fukushima nuclear power plant, reinforce this concern as untold damage and long term hazards from radioactive waste are anticipated. Despite all this, some environmental advocates support the use and development of nuclear power as an energy source that is indispensable in our everyday life. In either event, the world will have to reexamine its views and use of nuclear power.
