- It creates solid radioactive waste that has to be stored safely over the long term

- Produces a great deal of air pollution

- Risk of danger at reactor sites

- Adds waste heat to air and water

Respuesta :

Answer: the firsts three answers

Explanation:

the first I'm sure because the radiactive waste is radioactive so it's dangerous to the living beings so we need to store in a secure zone.

To produce the energy there is a process in that process the nuclear central throws toxic fumes to the air

It's dangerous to be in the reactor sites without protection because is the most radiactive site in the central

The negative aspects of using nuclear energy are Option(A) It creates solid radioactive waste that has to be stored safely over the long term, Option(B) Produces a great deal of air pollution and Option(C) Risk of danger at reactor sites.

What is nuclear energy ?

Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity. Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion reactions. Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants.

What are the disadvantages of using nuclear energy ?

The disadvantages of using nuclear energy are as follows -

  • It creates solid radioactive waste that has to be stored safely over the long term . The solid radioactive waste from nuclear power plants has a severe impact on the health of human mankind.
  • Produces a great deal of air pollution. The pollution from the nuclear power reactor sites are considered to be most dangerous and harmful. It posses serious health hazards to people living nearby of the site.
  • Risk of danger at reactor sites. The nuclear reactor sites are considered to be most dangerous in terms of risk factor. Any kind of severe accident can happen in no time for the employees working there.

Therefore Options(A), (B) and (C) satisfies the negative aspects of using nuclear energy.
