Comment on Not a single one
crimson_iris@piefed.social 1 week agoThese guys are responsible to find safe long time storage for nuclear waste. Spoiler: as of now, there is no such thing as safe long time storage.
What do they say about Onkalo?

Nothing, because they have only space for 6500 t high-level nuclear waste which is already reserved for Finnish nuclear waste, whereas Germany has like 17.000 t.

But with regards to the “no such thing as safe long term storage” comment?

Now I get what you mean. I should have phrased this better. I meant “no such thing as safe long term storage [could be determined in Germany yet]”. Which means, as of today, they could not find a safe location in Germany to build such a storage facility like Finland did.
Germany is densely populated and the ground/earth is mostly unsuited for long time storage.
