To the pro-nuke folks: Do you have any idea of what to do with all that spent nuclear fuel that's piling up both in Japan and in the US? If so, let those respective governments know, because they have no idea.

Back on topic please.

We are playing with fire when we play with Nuclear Energy.

We should be focusing on phasing it out.

Agree.

We need next generation nuclear as being implemented in China.

We need next generation renewables as being implemented in Germany.
