And if you drill down for very specific numbers from any particular industry, you have to look at the methodology. I am particularly suspicious of the nuke industry ignoring or discounting the very long storage requirement for the waste. And for those who say just recycle and re-use, that loop absolutely must produce plutonium, which raises the risk for production of very efficient nukes. Also, France's experiment with recycling fuels turned out to be dirty and expensive.
