This is a political and not a technological or economic problem. Global warming caused by our use of green house gas producing fossil fuels is a bigger threat then the tiny amounts of nuclear waste produced by nuclear energy and nearly all of that "waste" ca be recycled. We have crap loads of existing nuclear fuel just from the dismantling of our nuclear weapons due to the SALT treaties which we don't know what to do with and which we are storing anyway.

Any body who takes a hard and realistic look at how to reduce our green house gas production without massive disruption to our economy will see that nuclear power is the anwser. It will let us continue the life style we all want while slashing the production of green house gases which are harming our enviroment.
