2. Nuclear power and carbon capture aren't green

Your repeated false attacks on sustainable green energy ignore the realities of the dangers of the non green, non sustainable energy solutions you advocate for which are nuclear power and carbon capture. I continue to challenge you on this because these issues were part of my childhood. My 40 years of experience aviation/automotive engineer father firmly believed that green hydrogen is the solution. You're a chemical engineer, not an aviation/automotive engineer like my father so you don't have his expertise in aviation/automotive engineering. My engineer father taught me that your solutions of nuclear power and carbon capture aren't green because no one has figured out how to dispose of the toxic nuclear waste and carbon capture is nothing more than a scam used to keep burning the planet killing fossil fuels.
I'm curious to hear you explain disposal of toxic nuclear waste which is every bit as bad as burning fossil fuels if not worse because of the additional centuries of toxicity for any area of the planet poisoned by it and why you think the excuse of carbon capture so that more planet killing fossil fuels can continue to be burned isn't a scam?
