Closed fuel cycle reactors solve all the issues with nuclear and even uranium waste.
You put your waste fuel rods plus some depleted uranium in a fast neutron reactor and more new fuel is created than is spent by the reactor.
You know who already has a production fast neutron sodium reactor and facilities to process the mixed fuel to create more fuel? Russia. The only country in the world to have one. They are also building an even newer test reactor using molten lead instead of sodium cause it would be way safer (molten sodium is a bitch to work with without it lighting on fire).
And India is working on a similar idea, but using Thorium (cause India has the world's largest Thorium reserves). China as well.
Everyone is at least a decade ahead on this new generation of reactors. The actual and only viable new energy revolution.
