It would be "c. They can provide a lot of energy for people to use" that is not a potential problem of using more nuclear energy, since this is one of the greatest benefits.

Answer;
C. they can provide a lot of energy for people to use

Explanation;
The major advantage of nuclear power are that is it more efficient than burning fossil fuels as the amount of energy released from uranium for example per gram is much more than that of fuels such as oil or coal. Additionally less use fossil fuels means lowering the emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide among others that would lead to global warming.
