Do nuclear power plants generate more or less air pollution than fossil fuel plants?
A power plant uses fossil fuels to produce the energy. When the fossil fuels such as gasoline and coal is burned it releases chemicals into the air. Fossil fuels themselves don't cause pollution because they are objects in the ground. The fuels are burned inside the power plants which is where the chemicals and pollution comes from. The power plant doesn't cause pollution either because it simply takes the energy produced and distributes it. The pollution is caused during the chemical reaction of the heat of fire reacting with the petroleum fumes or the coal rocks. The chemicals and gas are simply products. So for a straight forward answer neither one produces pollution. The pollution comes from the chemical reaction. But in regards as to where the pollution come from it comes from the power plants because the fossil fuels don't give off pollution.

What pollution affects the tundra?
Power plants and factories burn different fossil fuels like coal and oil. The smoke and fumes from burning fossil fuels rise into the atmosphere and combine with the moisture in the air to form acid rain. Acid rain is damaging to the leaves of many trees, it limits the nutrients available to them, and can poison them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil.
