Sometimes immediate survival is more important.

Anyways, and more to the point, its not like the waste issue is gonna get WORSE just from time. 100,000 years of continuous operation of nuclear plants leading to a waste crisis, I’d call that a success.

Fine… I can imagine this same conversation 130 years ago in regards to fossil fueled mechanization. And see where we are now.

I say before we make a big leap, we solve the problems that have caused this issue to be a “hot” topic for 30 or more years (pun intended)…

Otherwise, I suspect people like us will be having a similar conversation 130 years from now, about the waste… or maybe 100,000 years from now.

I don’t trust the concept of “we’ll find a solution in the future.”
