No permanent and safe storage for high-level nuclear waste is yet in operation anywhere in the world.
The current temporary options are either “wet” or “dry” storage. Wet storage entails putting the waste in a pond and covering it with several metres of water to keep it cool. Dry storage involves putting the waste in containers made of concrete and steel.
These options are not a long-term solution. They are vulnerable to corrosion as well as natural disasters such as cyclones, tsunamis, earthquakes, fires and floods. ...
Other nations have struggled to find long-term solutions for nuclear waste storage. There is every reason to expect Australia would face the same problems.

In the UK, the cost of radioactive waste is forecast to grow to £260 billion (AU $501 billion).
In the USA, the Department of Energy (DOE) has forecast nuclear waste costs of US $50.2 billion (AU $76 billion).
In Canada, the government expects that nuclear waste management will cost CAD $26 billion (AU $29 billion).
Is this the legacy we want to dump onto future generations?
