This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Dumping it under ground doesn't seem like a particularly sophisticated strategy but it's actually perfectly safe. It's not going to leak out or anything it's in massive blocks of concrete.

Worrying about it is pointless.

For we know in 50 years someone will come up with a way to recycle it and it'll be a complete non-issue anyway. This pretty good research on recycling you can a material already so 50 years is not an unreasonable time frame. The current containing solutions are good for thousands of years.
