If we produce all of our energy from nuclear sources where do you
imagine the 'waste' energy will go? Out into space?


Why not - that's where most of the rest goes.

Perhaps. Do you know? The point I was making is that the waste from
renewables is here already. Nuclear generates *new* waste energy. It is
not as benign as TNP implies and to suggest otherwise distorts the
argument. I believe we need nuclear but it is certainly not the *only*
answer. Far from it. Apart from anything else, nuclear fuels *will* run
out.


When the universe dies a heat death, yes.

And all we have left is cold iron.
