Is Solar Power really cheaper than Nuclear Fuels?

Here is my answer to a critical, somewhat still pro Nuclear article on getsolar.com.

The article scrutinizes a study that has been published by the Waste Awareness & reduction Network.

The criticism suggests that the solar power costs are not really lower than for than Nuclear Fuels.
I absolutely contradict, if we take our children into account (and we should, shouldn’t we?).

Here is my counterplea:

“Hi,

sorry, but this analysis again neglects all too humanly one off the most important aspects… the minute you calculate the costs for protecting all this nuclear waste for at least 1 Mio. years from harming humans and nature, renewable energy is already thousands of percent cheaper than nuclear fuels…

And since we cannot even guarantee a secure waste deposit for only some hundred or thousand years, finding and building secure shelters for hundreds of thousands of years is non-affordable, not to mention doable

But your analysis again tends to forget that, well, what do we care about man in say 2000 years…if man then is still able to read our Nuclear warning Signs (for a discussion see Nuclear Sign), that is.

He won’t, we mostly cannot read signs from 2000 years ago…

So we make nuclear fuels affordable by neglecting our descendants…

This is very human, but not scientific.

Daniel”
