From 2019. Yes, we've figured out how to store it permanently. The country of 5 million somehow figured out what the hundreds of millions in Germany, USA, and others couldn't.
Or more accurately, actually did it. The solution has been known for awhile.
Also, never said a private company had to do anything - that's just a strawman you brought up.
That's basically what Finland is doing, with a few extra steps.
The whole waste thing isn't an unsolved issue, it's purely a political one.
So government then. Give the Responsibility to fund this all cost and zero profit social good endeavor to politicians like Trump or a Bolsonaro.
Finland and a few other countries are testing this out. But unfortunately like every other solution, there ends up being some unforeseen problem. Time will tell. Which is part of why a lot of people are hesitant and not wanting to rush into these things.
We also are finding other solutions in the meantime. Its not a bad thing if at the end of the day we don't need nuclear.
I know there's the joke that Finland doesn't exist, but didn't know people like you who took it seriously.
