What are the safest and cleanest sources of energy?

This comparison is misguided: the uncertainties around these values mean they are likely to overlap. The key insight is that they are all much, much safer than fossil fuels. Nuclear energy, for example, results in 99.9% fewer deaths than brown coal; 99.8% fewer than coal; 99.7% fewer than oil; and 97.6% fewer than gas.
