>What really frustrates me in this whole debate is the question asked so to dismiss nuclear by asking about what to do with nuclear waste. As if it’s insurmountable or somehow worse than fossil fuel pollution. In a US context it is even more silly considering built a place to store it costing billions of dollars and then decided not to use it. If the US doesn't want to commit to long term storage then they at least need to start reprocessing it to reduce the amount of waste.
