Why is nuclear energy bad for the world?

Nuclear energy produces long-lived radioactive waste. There is also a possibility of accidents that would release radioactive material into the environment. However, there is little to no greenhouse gas or smog produced by a fission plant, so (like everything else) it's a trade-off. Nuclear plants also release far less radiation when operating properly than a coal power plant does. This is because coal contains radioactive uranium and its various products xx

You can use it in a coal burning furnace to heat your house, or you could throw it at your friends, birds, or anything else.

Not by eating it, but you could try that, too.
