> no idea what to do with it This is a nonsense comment. The point of STORAGE is to do nothing with it. It's supposed to just sit there. Also, the only "leak" mentioned in the article, was not a leak at all. It was co

Waste disposal is a solved problem. One barrel per reactor per year is not a meaningful amount of waste.

Democracy's are will of the average intelligence and sub-average emotional state. They seldom act with prudence. This is why nearly all nuclear plants under construction today are occurring in non-democratic nations.

Angela Merkel was a disaster in this regard. The nation went collectively insane after Fukushima and she cowed to the public to win the next election rather than try to calm the public ignorance. Instead, Germany funded Russia's Nord

The parent comment above is being downvoted in favor of the top comment - which is a baseless pro-union comment. It's so strange. Do people really prefer to push an agenda here rather than understand the nuance and truth of what is go

Not necessarily, because it depends which city your hub is in. Other airlines might have issues connecting to that city, but if their hub is in a city that doesn't have heavy anti-vax presence, then they are only slightly impacted. Ja

These data points often just omit the opposite happening during down cycles of the economy. In 2008, the richest 1% lost, by far, the most money, even measured as a percentage. The reason these trends seem perpetually unsustainable is beca

It is iconic that ivy league schools don't even claim to respect the notion of free speech. When I was a student many many years ago, it was such an accepted truism, that it didn't even need to be mentioned.

The spent-fuel waste is roughly one barrel per reactor per year - not a lot and easily managed. There is a lot of very-low risk waste (ie of the same radioactivity as bananas) which really doesn't not need to be treated like life threa

Nuclear waste is buried in underground rock formations with geological ages in the millions of years. It's not a perfect solution, but if we don't start building out nuclear, we're going to flood most cities on Earth in 50 ye

We make nuclear expensive in the west by shutting down storage facilities and mounting endless legal challenges to every construction project. Other nations build nuclear plants for one-tenth the cost.
