It can be harmful - see Chernobyl. But in a well run industry the risks are very minimal. This is achieved by good design and careful operating techniques.

What energy source releases harmful substances?
nuclear
What is the most harmful energy used in the UK?
it is nuclear
What are some harmful energy power plants?
nuclear power plants
Why nuclear power is not the best way?
Bcoz production of nuclear energy form harmful radioactive elements.
Is nuclear energy harmful to a pregnant women?
Its not the nuclear energy, per se, that is harmful, it is the ionizing radiation that comes from the nuclear energy that is harmful. Also, its not the pregnant woman that's the issue, its the developing fetus that's the issue. Ionizing radiation is extremely harmful to developing fetal tissue, because any errors introduced at this stage have a very risk risk of compromising the viability of the fetus. Last, and lets be crystal clear on this point... nuclear energy itself is harmful to no one. Its the "generation of nuclear energy", i.e. the reactor itself, the power plant itself, that is the issue, if, in any way possible, there is an issue. You would not want a pregnant woman working as a radiation worker any more than you would want to give a pregnant woman an x-ray.
Is nuclear energy harmful or helpful?
Nuclear energy can be both harmful and helpful. It provides a low-carbon source of energy that can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but it also poses risks such as potential for nuclear accidents and long-term storage of radioactive waste. Implementation and management of nuclear energy play a crucial role in determining its overall impact.
How could nuclear energy be bad?
Just like any other energy can be bad - fire can burn, electricity can shock... Nuclear energy can have harmful radiations that can damage without proper precautions. In addition, there are no very satisfying alternatives at present for disposing of nuclear waste, so proceeding with heavy nuclear energy development is a bet that the future will find good solutions.
Is nuclear harmful to people?
I'm pretty sure nuclear has a bad affect on humans. It really depends on what you mean by Nuclear. If you mean Nuclear Energy, no. It is vital. If you mean Nuclear Waste, yes. It is deadly. If you mean the Nucleus of an atom. It is part you you.
Did the atomic bomb and nuclear use to help us or for harm?
atomic bomb caused harm while the nuclear energy can be both harmful(radiation) and harmless(for electricity).
Is radiation good for nuclear energy?
Radiation is used in nuclear energy to generate heat through fission reactions in the reactor core. This heat is then used to produce steam that drives turbines to generate electricity. While radiation can be harnessed for the production of nuclear energy, it is important to control and manage it to prevent harmful exposure to humans and the environment.
Does nuclear energy create air pollution and carbon monoxide?
No. Its only waste product is the depleted core which is quite harmful.
What are harmful causes of nuclear weapons?
there are many harmful causes of nuclear weapons because whole hiroshima was destroyed of it
