Why is nuclear waste renewable?
Nuclear waste is NOT renewable. It is typically buried and sealed off because of its non-usability and the radiation damage that can afflict people from being in the vicinity of nuclear waste.
If nuclear energy is renewable is it maintained or sustained?
It is not renewable. There is a fixed amount of fuel on earth and it cannot be increased. Even when people talk of breeder reactors, they are only breeding fissile fuel from non-fissile material, which is itself non-renewable.
Where do people of the US get their energy from?
In the United States, energy is sourced from a mix of fossil fuels, nuclear power, and renewable energy. The primary sources include natural gas, which is the largest contributor, followed by coal and oil. Additionally, nuclear power provides a significant portion of electricity, while renewable sources like wind, solar, and hydroelectric power are increasingly contributing to the energy mix. This diverse energy portfolio aims to enhance energy security and reduce carbon emissions.
Why did the BC government disallow nuclear energy?
While I don't know the specific situation of BC (what's that, British Columbia?), many people think there are serious problems with nuclear energy. The problems include the difficulty of getting rid of the nuclear waste, and the risk of a major nuclear accident.
Is solar energy a renewable energy?
some people say it isnt if its the sun, so if u mean the the sun then no, it is not renewable. solar energy itself, you PROBABLY could...
Why do people use fossil fuels instead of renewable energy?
Although renewable energy sources are better for the planet, they are not so good for your pocket. Solar panels etc. can cost alot of money to install, but governments are slowly introducing a rebate or cash back for people who do turn to renewable energy.
Why do most people use nonrenewable energy instead of renewable resources?
Cost. If there was an alternative that was cost effective the free market would embrace it. Unfortunately there is no cost effective solution. Hold on to your wallets because the solution will be to raise current energy costs to "level" it with more expensive "renewable" sources.
What are features of conventional and non conventional sources of energy in India?
India is the fourth largest producer of electricity, but some people in India still do not have access to electricity. 88% of their power plants use non renewable fuel and 12% use renewable fuel. Thermal, hydroelectric and renewable, and nuclear power are used, with nuclear being the fourth-largest source after the others listed. India is a leader in wind generation and number one in terms of solar energy production per watt installed.
What are two reasons people do not use nuclear energy instead of using fossil fuels?
Nuclear power stations are very expensive to set up, compared with fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) power stations.There is a problem disposing of nuclear waste and people are afraid of accidents.

Why isn't nuclear fuel contributing to global warming?
Nuclear power does not emit carbon dioxide greenhouse gas as the other non-renewable sources of energy (the fossil fuels of coal, oil and natural gas) do, so it doesn't contribute to global warming. Many people think nuclear power is an energy source that we should all be using because of this. Others remember the dangers from nuclear accidents and are not so convinced.
Do nuclear energy make people blind?
No
