Question: do you think global warming is being caused by nuclear waste ?

Matt Gunther answered on 11 Jun 2012:

No as nuclear waste does not release carbon dioxide (the gas which helps heat up the earth), nor does nuclear power in general. However, fossil fuels such as oil, gas and coal are all contributing to global warming at an alarming rate! That’s one of the reasons why the Government are wanting to use nuclear power in the future, as it is classed as a “low carbon technology”.
