Nuclear energy provides energy, not a push of motion.
the effective storage and disposal of nuclear waste
I think so, but others disagree. It is a controversial issue.

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.
a nuclear reactor had a nuclear meltdown

From what I understand the issue is not really the access to nuclear energy but, the access to nuclear material. If some more "rogue" and "dangerous" countries had access to nuclear material and enriching plants they could easily create nuclear bombs which, these countries being more unstable than most, they could use for an attack that would kill many people.
a nuclear reactor exploded
The biggest source of debate associated with nuclear power is the issue of safety. Critics argue that accidents like Chernobyl and Fukushima demonstrate the risks involved with nuclear power, while proponents highlight improved safety measures in newer reactor designs and the potential for low-carbon electricity generation. The ongoing debate revolves around whether the benefits of nuclear power, such as its low carbon emissions and high energy efficiency, outweigh the potential risks.
i dont know. i dont even know what a moral issue is!
Moral reasons aren't an issue for Nuclear power affairs.. Everything may be dangerous at its beginning, but there isn't another way to develop something without running risks. Moral is related to customs. In the future, I believe that solar energy will substitute nuclear power, unless it becomes much more safer than today is.
The waste is the issue.
