The total amount of nuclear waste ever produced in the world could fit inside the ash pile produced by a single coal power plant. The amount of radiation next to a coal power plant is actually higher than near a nuclear power plant because coal has trace amounts of uranium and thorium in it. Whilst nuclear power is more expensive than wind and solar currently, the reverse was true 10 years ago; nuclear power has the potential to be cheaper than wind or solar if we again invest in technological progress in this area.
