4G reduces the waste problem to a non-issue.  The new designs produce 1-3% of the active waste of 2G and 3G with a halflife of 300 years instead of 300,000.  The start-up fuel cycle of every reactor can be fueled with existing waste before consuming any new fuel.  It is nothing compared to millions of used panels and manufacturing/lifecycle waste of turbines irrespective of the Land Blight.

Your obvious cognitive dissonance prevents a rational discussion.  I've wasted too much time already with someone incapable of doing even simple math and reading comprehension.  Renewables will die for major grid uses in the next 20-30 years  Cya in the next life.  I have no fear my grandkids will eventually be safe from your ignorance and dissonance.   But it will be a completely unnecessary and wasted price we will pay for folks like you, and pandering politicos.....

One last note, Just read the opening paragraph from the NR article.  Your whole thesis is blown.
