The answer is; D

Radioactive waste poses a serious challenge to the environment. Any leakage of the waste is risky because the radioactivity can flow up the food chain and it also takes time for it to decay and become less harmful. Therefore, its effect can be felt over many generations. Therefore, safe storage of radioactive waste is a challenge (and can be very expensive) and a deterrent for pursuing the potent energy source.
