    The biggest advantage of nuclear power is that it provides energy without greenhouse gas emissions (that contribute so dramatically to global warming). Fossil fuels burning releases a lot of greenhouse gases in the air

    Additionally, currently fossil fuels are burnt up a lot faster than we can replenish them: this leads to a potential shortage, a problem that is not found in the case of nuclear power.
