Answer:
The F u k u s h i m a nuclear accident gave ''wind in the back'' to the opponents of the production of nuclear energy because of the dangers from it.
Explanation:
Nuclear energy is produced via nuclear reactors. They are very expensive to be constructed and maintained, but the expenses are balanced very quickly because the nuclear reactors produce much more energy than any other type of facility for this purpose. It is also the cleanest and most environmentally friendly from any major type of production of energy.
Unfortunately, the production of nuclear energy doesn't come without risks. Even though very rare, accidents do happen, and when they do they cause much more damage than any other facilities for the production of energy. A more recent example is the accident in F u k u s h i m a, Japan, which resulted in a large-scale movement of people out of the area, abandoning of everything in the surroundings, and the area will not be suitable for usage for a very, very long time because of the very high levels of radiation. The opponents of nuclear energy production used this accident to make a point, especially cause it was one that happened in one of the most advanced countries, and what kind of consequences it had there, let alone if it happened in other parts of the world.
And scientists say it will take natural processes 6,000 years to refill the reservoir
C
Given that the World population changed little between this time, we can gather than the birth and death rates were similar, since they seem to cancel each other out from 1200-1400. To clarify, think of this. If you add something to a total (think births to population), but take away the same number (think deaths from population) you end up with the same total as before. Because of this, A is the correct answer choice (The birth rate and death rate were about equal).
