Nuclear power leaves a 200,000 year head ache.

Climate change is a mild problem in comparison, it will correct itself in centuries (taking most of civilisation with it, but mēh!)

I think it'd be easier to figure out how to manage that nuclear waste than burning humanity towards extinction and trying to deal with it when we get to it.

If oil/methane/coal waste was a solid cube that could be buried underground, instead of in the atmosphere, we wouldn't even be having this conversation.
