If anything can reduce/limit now the climate catastrophe then it is total transformation to clean electric energy which is produced with minimal emissions: housing, transport, industry, everything must go electric. Producing does not need to be renewables, it can be even fossils, it just has to be without GHG emissions. Nothing else matters. These theoretical risks, long-term waste storage etc are at best secondary questions which are totally irrelevant in current situation where we have almost lost that battle. Considering that full electrification requires automatically 3-4 times hike of energy demand any clean enough tech has to be considered and where possible deployed right away. It is simple like that.
