Do we have a solution for nuclear waste yet?
Reprocess it, salvage useful isotopes for known uses, keep a few others for research purposes, don't put it too far away because most of it could be useful in the future.
Afaik that is not an economically viable option.
clutches pearls won't someone think of the stock market?
France literally does that. They reprocess 96% all of their used fuel back into usable fuel and useful materials.
The number is false. You make a confusion between what could be recycled and what is actually recycled. And MOX is not a good option (expensive, 1 cycle, toxicity).
Ah yes, economically viable like destroying the planet.
If destroying the planet weren't economically viable, no one would do it.
This has been your daily depressing fact.
My point exactly.
Which part? France is basically doing this already.
