What Are the Risks Associated with Nuclear Energy?

Nuclear energy is a low-carbon energy source, but it involves risks related to radioactive materials.
- Radiation Exposure: Accidental releases of radioactive materials, such as during the Chernobyl or Fukushima disasters, can lead to acute and long-term health effects, including cancer.
- Waste Management: The disposal of nuclear waste remains a significant challenge due to its long-term radioactivity and potential for contamination.
