yes, and it's so dense that it fits in a ridiculous amount of space, unlike coal that will put cancer-causing dusts everywhere in the air for decades to come. Enjoy.
Nuclear waste has killed possibly a few hundred people at best.
Not if we store it properly, like we already do.
Take into consideration the burning of fossil fuels over a very long period of time. Billions.
I don't understand your argument; of course waste must go somewhere. Nuclear power, with its waste, is still cleaner than fossil fuels in every way.
No, we've got a pretty good idea.
>So I don't think it's demonstrably cleaner "in every way".
It is, objectively.
My stock comment for that is: bury it deep and with signs; if we've lost the ability to read the signs, we've lost the ability to dig deep and endanger ourselves.
Actually not every way though.. nuclear waste has to go somewhere.
