Ok John, How do you know Nuclear waste is toxic and deadly for thousands
of years if nobody's ever been around long enough to see? Nuclear materieals
have been around since the big bang, and they're all over the place! You
better find another planet to live on if you're worried about nuclear "waste".
And then find a planet which isn't heated by a suns nuclear radiation. Infact,
I'm sure you wouldn't have evolved into a human without the mutating effects
of radiation.
Nuclear waste can be refined to be used again and again. It's just
nobody's fronting the money for the experiments. When it's buried miles under
the ground, there isn't much to worry about. If NASA was involved, we could
launch the waste and send it towards the sun where it would be vaporized
without a trace.
