And that's the stuff that we can, you know, 95% of it is still uranium that we can just use again for energy.

Now, that's a whole other conversation that then, you know, we have to talk about proliferation concerns and we have to talk about ways to deal with that waste and so on.

But it's 95% of it is still uranium.

So.

If at any point we want to recycle it, we can.

And then the last part was truly understanding that when you look around us every single day, especially if you live like in New York City, and you walk on the street and you just stare at a sheer amount of waste that we create as a civilization every single day.

And then you think, you know, yes, most of this waste, whatever, breaks down in a couple decades, maybe in a couple hundred years.

Debatable because there's a ton of plastic waste that we're just now, you know, learning takes way longer than we anticipated.

And in the process of breaking down, it's actually going to the environment and being eaten by fish, which then goes into our bodies.

And all of a sudden, every single man that has been tested has plastic in their testicles.

But anyway.

Okay.

Thanks for that.

You're welcome.

You might be the exception.

But, you know, I guess what I'm saying is we create waste, a ton of waste, some of it toxic, some of it already causing health impacts, like plastic waste.

And yet nuclear waste, because it has the potential to be so dangerous, we've had to develop all of these very sophisticated systems to separate it and isolate it from people and the environment.

And for that reason, nuclear waste as it stands has never hurt a single person.

Well, it's actually a simpler process.

And then it also makes me think that this is how we should be approaching the waste that we create as a society.
