"long term storage" for CO2 is to spew it into the air where it remains forever... free for Germany, not so much Australia, California, Florida, etc.

CO2 doesn't stay forever in the atmosphere and what's does that have to do with nuclear energy? Building massive power plants also sets CO2 free, same with mining uranium.

Nuclear energy still has a waste problem, is expensive, creates massive single points of failure and given the current situation with the latest advances in drone warfare is a huge security risk while construction and operation.
