The generation of electricity through nuclear energy reduces the amount of energy generated from fossil fuels (coal and oil). Less use of fossil fuelsmeans lowering greenhouse gas emissions (CO2 and others).
Currently, fossil fuels are consumed faster than they are produced, so in the next future these resources may be reduced or the price may increase becoming inaccessible for most of the population.
Another advantage is the required amount of fuel: less fuel offers more energy. It represents a significant save on raw materials but also in transport, handling and extraction of nuclear fuel. The cost of nuclear fuel (overall uranium) is 20% of the cost of energy generated.

1 - nuclear waste remains radioactive and is hazardous to health for thousands of years. (Fossil fuel didn't create hazardous to health like nuclear energy create)
2- Harm the environment more then the energy create by using fossil fuel
.... Sorry if it doesn't helped you
