    Pay to store it in Finland, like everyone else is doing. They currently have a facility that isn’t even a quarter full and can be heavily expanded

    They don’t have storage for highly radioactive waste (as I said), only low to medium radioactive. A high radioactive solution is planned for years, but currently it is still not available.

    Solar panels can contaminate ground water if stored incorrectly, that’s a useless statement.

    That’s still a strawman argument. Just because I argue against nuclear power, I don’t automatically believe that another solution is perfect. Also that doesn’t change that the highly nuclear waste has no storage.

    Just because your specific economic union has not built one yet, does not mean you cannot use one of the commercial ones

    We can’t use one, because there is none.

    The containers do, and short of a nuclear bomb going off the waste isn’t escaping them

    Currently Castor Containers are used. They are designed for 40 years of storage. That’s nothing compared to the time the waste has to be stored safely.

    So much so that despite waste existing since the 1960s, there has never been an incident of nuclear waste escaping containment

    That’s also not true. We even have two new species of alligators because of containment with nuclear waste: Tritagator and Dioxinator
