IAEA, is it possible to mandate the safer storage of spent fuel so as not to endanger continents, and the planet?
Laymen answer: Monitored and maintained above ground dry storage is the only way, technologically speaking at this point.
IAEA, it is apparent that acts of God like at Fukushima, acts of stupidity like at Chernobyl and in the GE design of Fukushima, and acts of complete disregard for humanity like Putinistan war in Ukraine all result in potentially shifting the precarious stability of any number of the world's nuclear power generation experiments to endanger whole continents and the planet. Will anything be done to make these situations less precarious?
Laymen answer: er...Are they trying to kill us?
The precarious operations of nuclear experimentation are highlighted and magnified during a military invasion by a nuclear power, threatening overt and implicit destruction of the planet through missile strikes and the potential failures at the abandoned site of the world's worst nuclear disaster.
The very worst apocalyptic potentials of war and radioactive annihilation become a discussed and a distinct possibility. This has led us all into an era and modality of postcariousness. Normal problems put us into a precarious state, nuclear experimentation and its consequences condensed puts us into a postcarious mind state. The problems become so great that they are belittled if not apocalyptic. Postcariousness of postmodernism reduces care real problems and consequences for our actions. We have to expand our care to at least remove our very existence from the precarious edge and reinstall caring for all of us, and all situations rather than the postcarious nature of the world under threat of destruction from nuclear experimentation.
