Solution

The correct option is A

Breaches at nuclear power plants.


A key cause of radioactive pollution is breaches at nuclear power plants, which can result in leakages of radioactive matter into the environment. As nuclear energy becomes a big alternative to fossil fuels, this risk increases. But still there is always a risk of radiation leak. Many power plants take necessary precautions to avoid these radiation leaks.
