Nuclear you can have a meltdown, and even when there is never a ctastrophe like that there is a radioactive biproduct that must be stored.
Coal is dangerous to mine, and produces pollution.
Oil can have spills that kill ocean life, and geopolitically we are currently in America dependent on other countries for oil.
Solar does not cause pollution when in use, but I wondered if producing the actual solar panels has any major risks not talked about?
Same with wind. Transporting the large wind mills from the factory to a location I guess is a daunting task? The larger wind mills? But, I would guess it is not very dangerous to produce?
