I gotta say, the C02 number seems very high to me too, just got that from a quick search and saw that a couple of times. I haven't investigated it closely tbh.
I wasn't aware of the mining differences between uranium and thorium, that is encouraging.
Regarding the waste, that's a fair point as well. Thanks for the response! Interesting points.
I used to be very pro nuclear energy. Besides the waste and the occasional meltdown it seemed like a no brainer as a renewable supplement. After learning a little more about it though it just seems like we have more runway for positive growth with wind and solar than nuclear, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
