Is disposal really a concern when we're facing the collapse of entire continent-sized ecosystems? Compared to runaway global warming, even widespread radiation

Is disposal really a concern when we're facing the collapse of entire continent-sized ecosystems?
Compared to runaway global warming, even widespread radiation poisoning seems trivial. And such poisoning is both hypothetical and extremely unlikely to be widespread.
- chiefalchemist 8y agoWe need more than "clean" energy. We need a change in a number of habits. We need actual leadership, and not only gov types. Etc. Nukes are the easy short term way out. The issue is what that means over the long term and how it impacts the other vectors in entity. of this problem. Without a wake up call we'll continue to mindlessly zombie on, as we have been. Nukes __might__ slow that (but only if they don't also create a false sense of overconfidence). However, they're not going to alter the course. They alone are not going to change the end.
