Oh the problem that nuclear proponents insist that does not exist.
When you point out it exists they tell you it’s minor (it all fits in baseball field is the used argument)
When you point at the real scale and the costs of cleaning up they then they proceed accusing you of not being patriotic enough.
We have been engineering solutions to tough problems forever. But step 0 is admitting that there is a problem.
Now we are at the denial stage.
The DOE is too busy meme posting on facebook about how awful solar and wind is. Not surprising.
