![]() "BobR" wrote in message ... On the other hand, your nuclear power plant us generating polution that will last thousands of years and we have yet to come up with an effective means of dealing with it. I'm sorry, but that is just wrong. The "waste problem" is the mantra the anti-nukes fall back on when they run out of logical arguments. From a science and engineering standpoint, the "problem" of nuclear storage has been solved for decades, the remaining problems are 99% political. Not the least of political problems is the crazy policy that we should not recycle our nuclear fuel modules. Recycling would greatly reduce the volume of the radioactive waste and recover an amazing amount of fuel for reuse. Also, remember that fossil power plants have their own waste storage problem; they are spewing megatons of gasses and chemicals into our atmosphere that will last for thousands of years, and we have yet to come up with an effective means of dealing with it...
