    Nuclear’s solution for permanent waste is to bury it and hope the future can get rid of it. I’m tired of pushing current problems onto future generations. Yes nuclear is safer than fossil fuels, but it’s not perfect.

      No it’s not perfect but halting any progress because of potential problems is stupid when the current method is doing so much more harm.
