All you think you know about nuclear waste is a lie. First, the amount of waste that last centuries fits in a single room per nuclear country. Also you don't need to manage or finance it at all, you can just leave it there an be fine with it: In fact when nuclear was still being treated like a regular industry with respect to its pollution, the nuclear wastes from the military and early civilian programs in UK and France were being dumped in the middle of the Channel. Not that I'm saying that this is a good thing, at all, but it's also causing no harm in practice and because the quantities are so small, the environmental impact of doing so is much smaller than the routine wastes of most industries, including IT. Also, we've known the solution to waste for 60 years now: it's called a breeding reactor. 40 years ago France had one prototype (Phénix) and wanted to scale it up to industrial size (Superphénix) but it was canceled due to pressure from Greenpeace (including a successful campaign to pressure the Swiss government to fight the project)! Then 30 years later Greenpeace is conveniently still using the nuclear wastes argument.
