Consider the following statements-
1. Nuclear power provides about 6% of the world's energy and 13–14% of the world's electricity.
2. The expense of the nuclear industry remains predominantly reliant on subsidies and indirect insurance subsidies to continue
3. Nuclear energy production is associated with potentially dangerous radioactive contamination as it relies upon unstable elements.
4. In particular, nuclear power facilities produce about 200,000 metric tons of low and intermediate level waste (LILW) and 10,000 metric tons of high level waste (HLW) (including spent fuel designated as waste) each year worldwide.
5. The use of nuclear fuel and the high-level radioactive waste the nuclear industry generates is highly hazardous to people and wildlife.
