Spent fuel rod reactors are well into development, and they will be able to use that waste to generate power and leave behind non-radioactive materials.
Yes that's true but that's also not the point. The point is that we already have a problem and making it twice the size doesn't make it twice as bad
It will take quite a while to double our spent fuel rods, and once we start using them for fuel we can tackle the rods faster than we produce them.
In the meantime underground storage works just fine without harming people or the environment much.
