Best Answer

Nuclear energy has both advantages and disadvantages, therefore I would say that it is a bit of both; we could describe it as a mixed blessing. From an environmental perspective, nuclear energy could be a major tool in combatting global warming, because it does not emit greenhouse gases, and therefore it can replace other energy sources such as coal burning power plants that do emit greenhouse gases. However, there are other energy sources such as solar power which are even more environmentally sound, so in the end, we may phase out nuclear power, if we can get our act together. Nuclear waste, and the potential for catastrophic nuclear accidents, remain real concerns.
