Answer is C) - Nuclear power produces no carbon dioxide emissions unlike coal or oil power production.

Nuclear power use natural Uranium to make energy and water is used as cooling process. Hence, nuclear power production uses natural resources.

The waste is very harmful in nuclear power production. That should be managed by a proper way.

Although nuclear power can produce a huge energy, the availability of nuclear power is less than coal and fossil fuels.

But the greatest benefit of nuclear power is, it does not emit carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming.
