I must confess, when I saw the headline "A Review of Data Triples Plutonium Waste Figures" my resonse was x-rated.
As bad as we know nuclear to be, it just keeps getting worse as more information comes out. It is amazing to me that there are still people that try to say nuclear is the one perfect "clean" fuel ..
HELLO? Seriously?
Of course they prefer not to talk about the $ BILLIONS of dollars we have to spend every year just to secure and "baby-sit" the radio active wastes. AND, that this expense will continue for at least 100,000 years because the stuff continues to be extremely
Deadly to humans.
Even if we stop using it today and create no more radio active wastes, we still have all of that toxic deadly crud that still has to be contained at a huge on going expense ....
It boggles the mind.
