All power production on a large scale is bad in some way, what we should do is reduce the effects as far as possible, still being economic and providing power to industry, transport, homes, etc.

because of global warming
they use vital resources to run, like fossil fuels, they also use nuclear power. both of these effect the environment.
Carbon Dioxide, particular matter, mercury and radioactive trace elements are released/emitted from the fossil fuel thermal power stations and cause damage to the environment. Also, paying for the fuel, clean up and remediation of pollution-prevention. :)
less than 50 commercial power stations of more than 1 MW.
a natural harbour is natural so what would it do to affect the environment
Yes
power stations are situated in places away from people so that harmful radiation, gases and pollution do not affect them and is not harmful to them
nuclear power stations r bad for the environment because they can leak waste into our enbvironment and then kill our trees and life and then we will have less oxygen and we will all DIE! o and if they go critical then we will a go BOOM BOOM
Solar power is a clean source of energy because it does not produce greenhouse gas emissions or air pollutants during operation. The impact on the environment is minimal compared to fossil fuels because sunlight is a renewable resource and does not require combustion to generate electricity.
because of global warming
Because unlike other sources of energy, Nuclear power is toxic. Runoff and meltdowns can have extremely bad effects on the environment.
there are no solar power stations in new zealand
Cottam power stations was created in 1969.
Stella power stations was created in 1954.
Stella power stations ended in 1991.
Rugeley power stations was created in 1963.
Yes, nuclear power stations are generally more efficient than coal power stations, as they can generate more electricity with the same amount of fuel. Nuclear power produces less waste and greenhouse gas emissions compared to coal power.
