The one byproduct of Nuclear Power Generation. What is to be done with the nuclear waste? It’s not as if the waste is ‘safe’ to be left outside, no other State wants the waste, what’s to be done?
Yes, natural gas energy production does create CO2 during power production. But I do feel you’ve simply ‘glossed’ over the one glaring issue that has always been a HUGE problem concerning Nuclear Power production. What do we do with the spent nuclear power rods. The folks who used to live at Chernobyl certainly would like an answer.
