There is enough material to last us for the foreseeable future while we develop other sources to be able to rely on 100% of the time.
There are enough alternatives to ditch nuclear already and rely on better sources

From that link…
Relatively few accidents have involved fatalities, with roughly 74 casualties being attributed to accidents and half of these were those involved in the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.[6]
Compare that to estimated 7 million killed every year by pollution from burning fossil fuels.
How many people died in Somalia due to nuclear waste?
None confirmed from any of the reports I could find, but feel free to post credible evidence otherwise.
None confirmed and yet the waste is there dumped in the wild, do the math
You really trust UNSCEAR ? 😆
#Nuclear is an expensive, uninsurable, unviable tech kept afloat by usually authoritarian government subsidies that produced waste that will be around for thousands of years.
Nuclear fission is a dead end technology.
Wind, Solar and Battery tech will be in place in a fraction of the time and for less cost.
