Answer to Question 1

Answer: Nuclear power generates the same amount of energy from one kilogram of material as from two million kilograms of coal, which makes nuclear energy potential very abundant. However, a number of accidents at power plants have raised safety concerns. As a result, the development of new nuclear power plants has mostly halted.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Pollution that does not come from a defined site such as a pipe or a smokestack; examples of nonpoint water pollution include agricultural runoff, and urban runoff; windblown dust is an example of nonpoint air pollution.
