Is it safe?

One other thing all nuke plants do besides leak waste, is create heat from atoms. That heat goes into the air and cooling water. Uh, don't we have a problem with Global Warming?

Solar, otoh, takes heat from the sun, takes it out of the atmosphere and creates electricity. Solar is a neutral source. It creates no extra heat and emits no co2 or radioactive wastes.
