The most likely scenario is that at some point next 300 years we figure out advanced fission or fusion and if we do so burning that waste up isn't that big a deal.
If the danger were a nuclear explosion destroying a city, then you would have point.
But its not, the danger is maybe a slightly leaking cask could maybe lead to slightly higher cancer rates in a certain area.
> So you must store 1000 more times the fuel for it to be truly sustainable
Instead of one 1 football field it might be 1000 over the next 10000 years. Yeah horrible, we can't possible spare 1000 football fields full of parking lots.
- smaudet 3y agoYeah, it is pretty terrible. For one reactor, you would have a point. For many reactors, it is x1000 time cost.
