Ecomodernist Soapbox #3: The Myth of Nuclear Waste

A continuation of the last soapbox, "Wake Up!" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjF7P... ) this video explains how nuclear spent fuel from nuclear reactors isn't "waste" at all nor is it dangerous. It's perfect safety record worldwide stretching back to the 1950s is proof enough and ,actually rather than being "waste" it is actually an extremely valuable commodity in the making like expensive old wine. Sure it sounds strange to hear this but truth is sometimes stranger than fiction!
