What are some factors that make environmentalists against nuclear power stations In other words what are the major environmental effects of a nuclear power station?
Nuclear power stations use local water supplies to cool their reactors and dump a lot of ambient heat into the environment as a result. Many also have concerns about the radiation in the plant and its effects on the environment should the plant become breached and the fact that the nuclear waste produced by the plant will remain dangerous for thousands of years wherever it ends up being stored. However, it should be noted that a gram of uranium can produce the equivalent energy of tons of coal, so nuclear plants produce reliable power without burning fossil fuels.
How many people have died due to accidents and pollution from nuclear power plants compared to how many have died due to accidents and pollution from coal power plants?
There technically is no "pollution" from nuclear power, the only by product is steam. The transport and storage of spent nuclear fuel is extremely secure and safe. The only time we are in danger of nuclear radiation are if the reactor vessels that house the nuclear rods are damaged or melt....which is extremely rare and only happens with a massive failure in the chain of events that govern and sustain the supply (in theory, a deliberate attack on a power plant would also cause a spill, too. Yet, so far, that hasn't happened). In the end, thousands of people die every year from the burning of fossil fuels, where as virtually nobody dies from the use of nuclear power. Over 85 of France's power usage comes from nuclear power, after all.
