Question

How is nuclear energy not beneficial to the environment?

Answer 1

nuclear energy is not at all beneficial to the environment as it fills the environment with chemical radiation

Answer 2

Answer:

"An operating nuclear power plant produces very small amounts of radioactive gases and liquids, as well as small amounts of direct radiation. If you lived within 50 miles of a nuclear power plant, you would receive an average radiation dose of about 0.01 millirem per year. To put this in perspective, the average person in the United States receives an exposure of 300 millirem per year from natural background sources of radiation.
