Storing the remainder underground is mostly a one-off cost except for some monitoring. It&amp;#x27;s a solved problem and only public misconceptions about tectonics and radioactivity are holding it back.</text><parent_chain><item><author>jagermo</author><text>Plus, you know, storing the waste for thousands of years without a good place to do so.
