An architect friend was leaving to move to Maui, and we were having a leisurely conversation, when he said he had come around to believing nuclear power was a climate solution being carbon neutral and all the waste could fit in an Olympic size swimming pool. I didn't want to debate, just brought up Diablo Canyon needing power and water to prevent explosions like Fukushiima, until that swimming pool was loaded, but would have used the 1000x Hiroshima radiation released per reactor and 10 x from spent fuel rods, if I'd known.
