The best part about nuclear waste is rapidly it becomes harmless, unlike every other kind of waste we produce. Unfortunately most of our waste is not nuclear, and therefore will contaminate the biosphere, basically forever.

- mcv 11y agoI think you may have that backwards. A lot of waste can be broken down, and will definitely be broken down on the timescale that some nuclear waste needs before it's harmless.
