Reply #45: Yes, you are asking about nuclear waste

[Nederland]

And if there was a "safe" way to get rid of it.

Since "safe" is a relative term, I was asking what you were comparing it to. For example, it is my understanding that no one has ever died from exposure to nuclear waste. (Yes, lots of people died in Chernobyl, but that was due to a flawed design not used in anywhere in the West, not exposure to waste.) In comparison, tens of thousands of people die every year due to the air pollution caused by coal emissions. If you agree that standards should not be different, I would think you would be far more concerned about a waste product that kills thousands of people every year versus one that has never killed anyone.

Is that a fair question?
