Want this question answered?
because it doesn't create pollution and it is greener than coal and nuclear power plants :P

I have put a link to the Wikipedia page, "List of nuclear reactors," below. It seems to be pretty good, and includes some reactors that are not in nuclear plants, such as research reactors.
For this, you can blame public media,nuclear power can be good or bad but, if the people get scared they will not want to live near or go anywhere near them. Take the recent nuclear news for example
All nuclear power is good for the environment. While there are certainly risks, when you look at the big picture, you discover that nuclear power is less risky or dangerous than fossil fueled plants, particularly from an environmental standpoint. Most moderns French plants are PWR's, Pressurized Water Reactors. Please see the Related Link below for more information.
Nuclear power is neither good nor bad. The way nuclear power is produced (Safety) can be good or bad, though. Nuclear power can be generated by small power plants, creates no air pollution, and is safe when done right.
The honest answer is the USA has been producing a great deal of nuclear waste and ignoring the problem of what to do with it. President Obama wants more nuclear power plants, but, has not said what to do with nuclear waste. A lot of waste is stored in nuclear power plants, but, they are getting filled up fast, and that is not really a good idea. The possibility of an accident or theft is very real.
If you are exposed to it directly it is very unhealthy, in fact deadly in a short time. However it is not difficult to provide adequate shielding in power plants, and operating staff on nuclear plants have a good health profile generally, perhaps because they have regular check-ups. Nuclear energy used in power plants has a very good health and accident record, despite being in itself a dangerous process, this is due to good design and operating practices
Uranium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors. Nuclear power plants don't contribute to global warming, greenhouse effect, carbon dioxide releasing. Uranium is now the most important alternative to fossil fuels.
Nuclear power can be bad and good for the earth it depends on what happens
Not normally. If they melt down, they can cause extreme damage. But generally it is a source of good, clean energy.
