    we have no safe storage for the waste they produce.

    This is not true. Nuclear waste is made almost completely safe by simply shielding it w/ concrete and letting it become less and less radioactive over time. In these cases, the radiation put off by the encapsulated waste gives off less radiation than flying on a plane. ALL of our nuclear waste (in the entire world) could fit in an area smaller than a football field and made inert with concrete.

    The waste from fossil fuels floats around us constantly, and is in all of our lungs right now. I know which one I’d rather deal with.

    Solar and wind alone cannot save us from climate change. We will continue to need more and more power, and solar and wind are unable to keep up on their own, especially year round. We need to use all of our safer options to replace fossil fuels, including nuclear.
