Still creates extremely toxic waste which is hard to dispose of.
Time to have a debate on Advanced Nuclear Technology like Molten Salt Reactors
Big selling point for advanced nuclear technology is the next-generation designs promise to be SAFER & CHEAPER, while REDUCING the amount of nuclear waste
And zero carbon

Zero carbon????? What about all the embodied energy with mining, processing, transporting and disposing of the waste. Zero carbon????

The same situation with most energy production. Your average solar pv has some nasty stuff in them, yet we are ok with calling solar generation zero carbon…? advantage of nuclear is the sheer amount of energy you can draw from the raw material extracted. Energy density is king.
