The Trick To Disposing of Nuclear Waste Could Be Turning It Into Glass

Gizmodo India - ‎5 hours ago‎
Nuclear power is great, but the waste it creates is a problem. Best case scenario we can turn it into more power in the future, but for now we're stuck just stashing it away. But there's another way-a badass way-that's poised to make it easier and safer: nuclear ...http://www.gizmodo.in/science/The-Trick-To-Disposing-of-Nuclear-Waste-Could-Be-Turning-It-Into-Glass/articleshow/25392689.cms
