Nuclear power demonstrably causes the least amount of damage of all known methods of power and heat production, both in terms of human deaths per kwh as well as in adverse environmental impact such as emissions and land use. Nuclear waste is a negligible issue as it is extremely dense, very little of it exists and (as it turns out) it can be recycled in the most advanced reactors and thus reduced by another 40% or so.

It's like saying Iodine tablets are more valuable than Platinum because a Nuclear War could theoretically start tomorrow.
