My point is that it's not an argument against renewables per se. If industrial society powered by nuclear (or unicorn farts) is sustainable, it implies recycling is either unnecessary or solvable.

I think environmental impact by producing billions of pannels of landfill is actually an argument against solar.
I am not against solar, by the way, but it is obviously an important consideration.

You are selective in your concern. Is industrial society as a whole ok? It will produce much more waste that needs recycling that solar/wind will. If it is ok, then why would solar/wind not be?
This smells of bad faith argumentation.

No.

And that is bad.

Not at all the question. Two things can be bad at the same time.
