What do you mean by that? Deep geological storage seems to work pretty well, and the 'size' of the problem is so small that even if we were to 100x it it would still be minuscule when compared to e.g. coal ash runoff, which includes fun things like arsenic and mercury and is currently 'disposed' of by stuffing it in landfills or even uncovered open-air pools. | ||

> Deep geological storage seems to work pretty well Not well enough - the crystalline parts of earth's crust are still too porous to reliably keep it contained. It would leak like radon gas. The radon gas situation exists because the earth's crust is unable contain the earths residue radioactivity. | ||
