Environmental Safety
Nuclear energy has perhaps the lower impact on the
environment, especially in relation to kilowatts produced,
because nuclear plants do not emit harmful gases and
require a relatively small area for production. There are no
significant adverse effects to water, land, habitat, species and
air resources.
