Don't forget nuclear waste that is just building up forever with nothing to do with it.

It's the only kind of waste that goes away on it's own if you literally sit on it and do nothing

Do you know how much nuclear waste has been produced in the whole world for the entire history of nuclear energy production?

Around 500 000 tonnes.

That's 0.001% of the waste thrown into the atmosphere by fossil fuels EVERY YEAR.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
