Ok, now, stay with me here,
If we make more stuff than we use, if "This generation" signs up the next one to be the caretakers of this material, what values are needed to make that sustainable? How is it our right to make that decision?
Nobody has really addressed the byproducts issue with anything more than a hand wave, I've heard just bury it, and nuclear waste on the rocks, I think some major assumptions are being made here.
You HAVE to deal with the "what do we do with the leftovers" question effectively if you want more folks to buy in. And build the case that it is the right decision from a wide range of angles.
