Are you kidding? Nuclear Power is so completely harmless, as long as the government is making sure plants run safely. The amount of reactive nuclear waste produced in the last 40 yrs is only enough to cover 1 football field 5 yards deep. There is literally no air polution, and as long as no one is stupid enough to dig up the waste (if they actually knew where it was), it is completely harmless.

Combustion of fossil fuels produce way more environmental dangers. Even the founders of Green Peace acknowledge now that nuclear power is the safest and cleanest way to go.
