In all seriousness, I think by the time we can get a space elevator engineered and built, we should have the technology for other forms of energy.
Besides, what do you do with the radioactive waste once it's up in space? Dump in on another planet like Venus? Send it to the sun? Would sending radioactive waste to the sun have other impacts to our environment?
