It would take about 1,000,000 sq miles to power 10 billion at the western standard if SOLAR replaced EVERYTHING. You may say "conserve or make less babies" but still, that puts a limit to growth. I want my kids to be able to colonize the stars!
Therefore, we need to GO ALL OUT for the...
liquid fluoride thorium reactor !!!
It can fission spent fuel which means "Yucca" should never even be used!
Unlimited energy, half life 1000 X faster than todays wastes and 90X more efficient! Search it :)
As if a nuclear reactor is just engineering ... most are privately run, so accountants have a say too ... supposedly bridges over the Mississippi river are safe too, in an engineering sense, but they fall down, don't they? We're better off leaving the stuff in the ground where it belongs.
What is the point of stating the half-life of U-235? Not only is it transmuted, what really should be discussed is specific activity. Dont mix politics with engineering; since when did politician ever solve problems? The arguments are mediocre at most. Indeed, 'safety is a myth' as no system has 0 risk.
What is point in comparing RBMK1000 to non-soviet reactors?
For your information, nuclear power is a sustainable energy source. What prohibits it is politics and public opinion.

Green groups are being targeted by the nuclear lobby with many white ant members intentionally subverting their agenda.
Five stars for your effort.
