You should look into the modern tech here, it isn’t just burying millions of tons of toxic waste under New Jersey. There are “breeder reactors” that use the recycled fuel to generate more power. They actually generate more fissile material than they consume, so instead of waste, they mostly produce more fuel.

So we’ll need to store or dispose of large amounts of fissile material until it can be used – which only makes more? This seems unsustainable.
