ALMR reactors would use that waste to produce short half-live waste which radiation can even stop in the matter of hours...
Thats what Chinese invest into now and technology is 40 years old.
Technologically we are way past the "dirty&dengerous" nuclear reactors. ALMR also fixes issue of old nuclear reactors that could be shut down overtime.
People fear the second Chernobyl.. thats that why we dont invest into Nuclear Power that is our only chance in current age. There is no logic in that, only mass media, lobbing and disinformation going rampant..
