You are comparing CO2 emission and use of metal and completely ignore the catastrophic systemic risk of nuclear power.

There has been many events where nuclear waste has been dumped in the ocean, misplaced, lost, improperly buried, leaked in rivers, caught fire and even deliberately used in projectiles and dispersed in the environment.

And this is nothing compared to the risk of exposing large amounts of waste during a war or terrorist attack.
