Fusion is the future and I think fission will be a necessary evil for the near future :\. Wind/water/solar power will never be able to generate enough energy. Not to mention that dams destroy habitats..
Procession of nuclear waste already is a huge problem. German waste gets shipped to France, from where it pollutes the Atlantic together with Sellafield.
Burying nuclear waste sounds like a really bad idea. There's been talk of using emptied salt deposits here in the north of The Netherlands as storage area for nuclear waste, but I'm not convinced it's geologically stable enough. We humans have a knack of doing something harmful to the environment (and ultimately ourselves) only to find out about it decades later (DDT springs to mind..).
