I'm pro nuclear because it's orders of magnitude better than the shit we're already doing and it turns out you can basically just put the spent fuel back where you found it yes I know that's a little reductionist but you get my point.
That said I also think renewables are a good idea and we need a mix but there's been so much damage done to nuclear image when it's a perfectly good power source
Can you explain what you mean by this? I study Chemistry and am from a Uranium producing country and this frankly just seems wrong.
Deep geological disposal in underground mines or stable rock formations 200 to 1,000 meters deep is the globally accepted standard for isolating high-level nuclear waste.
I did say that I was oversimplifying it radically. We don't literally just put it back in the ground it needs to be in a smart place.
Makes sense, my country has been struggling with this problem for a while because it's tectonically simply not stable enough. And good luck convincing geologically suited countries to take everyone's waste.
