Seriously though I read about this and I still think nuclear power is the way to go. 1 leak in how many earthquakes? I would say if we put more effort into negating nuclear waste that problem could be resolved.
The DoD funded the design of a reactor cooled with liquid sodium and incapable of meltdown which also practically removed waste. However, it was deemed to expensive to be viable in market and only one prototype was ever constructed.
