Which is more dangerous nuclear power or coal and oil?

Presumably you mean nuclear power plants, not nuclear weapons. Most people would I think say nuclear power is more dangerous, but just look at the figures. The worst accident ever was at Chernobyl and I think about 50 people lost their lives directly, though more may get cancer eventually. Many people get cancer without nuclear power of course. But just think about how many coal miners have been killed in mining accidents, and how many have been killed in accidents on oil rigs, especially off-shore ones. This will put it in perspective. In a normal year, no-one is killed in nuclear plants due to nuclear accidents, though there are bound to be some normal type industrial accidents, and in fact as far as I know there has never been a death in a US nuclear plant due to a nuclear cause.
