Answer
A
Nuclear power produces radioactive waste and air pollutants.

Nuclear power produces radioactive waste that must be safely stored for a long time, and accidents at nuclear facilities can cause serious harm. It does not use up petroleum products as its fuel, and air pollutants are not the key disadvantage listed here.
