If you wrote "trillions" or "gazillions" and add 20 more zeros it would definitely look much scarier! If you talk about engineer, try to put things into scale.
In reality, the whole UK nuclear power program for 60 years produced ~2100 m3 of high-level waste. This is less than volume of an Olympic swimming pool.
And this is about how much ash a coal-powered power plant produces in a DAY. Yet, we somehow manage with this enormous volumes, even if it's radioactive too.
