B. Bio mass produces no radioactive waste

Biomass is the production of energy by burning agricultural waste, therefore it releases carbon dioxide in the combustion process. This CO2 and the ashes produces during the combustion are pollutants and since it come from agricultural procedures are a renewable source.
