Most people who are against nuclear power, have the following reasons:
Nuclear power is not a solution.
No one? My basement is available. Go right ahead and pay me and store it. I don't want to hear a single person make this claim when I am inviting the industry to pay me for my basement.
You jest, but long term nuclear waste storage really is a problem. The public at-large tends to get all NIMBY about it. In the 1980's, the federal government was working on a long term underground storage facility in rural Nevada, near the Nevada Test Site (aka in the middle of fucking nowhere) and of course the locals threw a giant fit and got the project shut down. As a result, spent nuclear fuel is routinely held at naval shipyards and power plants around the country without a final destination.
Not a good enough reason to not invest in nuclear power, but a problem nonetheless.
I was joking?
I guess that'd work if you live in a very remote area, alone, without neighbors.
I do not. Still the offer stands.
Anywhere that has the proper rock formations is a suitable long-term internment location. But as the other guy suggests, yeah you could stick it in his basement in a nuclear cask short term
Russia is 12th in Uranium exports, with 0.001% of global exports. Kazakhstan is first at 59%, but there's Canada with 30%, France with 8%, and the US with 2%. There's plenty of politically easy Uranium, especially if people start buying it over Kazakhstan.
India, Brazil, Australia, and the US are also slated to have the most Thorium resources, which could be a more significant nuclear fuel with modern and near-modern reactors.
So deregulate to the same standards Fossil Fuels are regulated at
because of all of the red tape from your last point, as well as fossil fuel organized NIMBYS
Again because disinformation spread by fossil fuel organized NIMBYS
Breeder reactor
