We've seen the ads about how nuclear power is clean and efficient. Well, it's not. The amount of nuclear waste produced is immense. Check out these statistics:
- 80% of nuclear waste will still exist on this planet 1000 years from now
- It has been linked to cancer, heart disease, and mental illness
- Millions of liters of water are polluted to keep nuclear reactors cool
- Nuclear waste has to be stored underground, which can eventually leak out
- Jeff Gertsman was fired today, so none of the above things matter anymore. Perhaps we should bury the nuclear waste under Cnet?
