What waste is created?
Nuclear Waste
Until the mid-1970's, U.S. utilities planned that used fuel from nuclear plants would be kept on-site for a few months, and then be shipped to a reprocessing plant to recover plutonium and uranium. Consequently, plant specifications had limited spent-fuel storage capacity. Up until 1982, the federal government intended to receive spent fuel for disposal at a specified date. The date has continuously been postponed. The Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 determined that the Department of Energy would accept the used fuel to be transported and disposed in geological foundations by 1988. However, this schedule has been delayed also, and no facilities have been constructed. Right now, Obama is searching for a place that would be acceptable and safe to put the Nuclear waste. The basic method of Nuclear Waste Disposal is to bury it in the ground and hope it doesn't leak out. Or we could feed it to Homer. --->

Gases emitted from oil use
When oil is used, it emits carbon dioxide. In 2011, Carbon Dioxide accounted for about 84% of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions from human activities. Carbon dioxide doesn't absorb the energy from the sun, but it does absorb some of the heat energy released from the earth. When a molecule of carbon dioxide absorbs heat energy, it goes into an excited unstable state. It can become stable again by releasing the energy it absorbed. Some of the released energy will go back to the earth and some will go out into space. So in effect, carbon dioxide lets the light energy in, but doesn't let all of the heat energy out, this is global warming.

Waste is basically only created from nuclear power, although oil emits harmful gases that have been the main blame for global warming.
