Re: Climate change solved? Small scale nuclear generators

There is limited scope for nuclear power until the problem of dealing with the waste is solved. On purely economic grounds I don't see how they can be cheap when the waste will need secure storage for thousands of years.
Also nukes provide baseload electricity so there is still a need something more controllable in the fuel mix to manage the grid.
I admit I'm biased, don't like the idea of nuclear power at all.
