Gas no, but coal and other burning based fuels create similar hazards, in addition to nasty waste products and mining related pollution.
Coal spreads radioactive ash and various noxious chemicals. In my area of the country, many lakes were “killed” by coal related pollution from the Midwest in the 70s and 80s, for example.
Nuclear waste disposal is a real issue that needs to be deal with, but overall the technology has potential to be much better than it is today.
