    i do not think something that stays dangerous for longer than you have not shat your pants is negligible.

    if shitting your pants was the way to get rid of radioactive waste, i would be all for it, but as it stands all you would be left with would be tainted with nobody to clean it up for you. and somebody would still have to take care of the radioactive waste… it doesnt just vanish. there are no organisms that eat it up and make it into foodstuffs for others.

    maths can say it is negligible, but then sad hard reality kicks in and you have to be holding on to something that can kill not just you but anybody you tell to take over for you. this is not a place of honor

        toxic waste is more managable than radioactive waste. that is the logic that i am pounding on here.

        your logic says: let future generations take care of stuff we cant manage.

        and i say: it would be very irresponsible as we already have messed up the planet enough. let’s not add harder to manage waste to what’s already there.

        can we just agree to disagree?

        im not even saying we should ban research or something, there is still radioactive waste to manage
