          The number of people who told me that they were against nuclear and wanted to shut down nuclear plants yesterday but can’t comprehend that they will be replaced by coal fire… Inspired this meme. https://www.cnn.com/2023/04/15/europe/germany-nuclear-phase-out-climate-intl/index.html

    I wouldn’t be worried. Nuclear waste is fairly easy to detect and carries a unique signature from the reactor that it came from. If an operator starts dumping waste, they’re going to be caught very quickly.

      That’s the joke, everyone is scared of a hypothetical non-viable fear and they completely ignore the current reality.

        US Navy reactors are run by 18-year-olds supervised by 25-year-olds so far pretty good track record.
