There is more Thorium in the Earth's crust than Uranium

Thorium reactors are able to incinerate the Plutonium waste, from existing reactors, that they can't figure out how to dispose of

They cannot melt down ala Fukushima

The reason that Uranium was chosen as the fuel of choice was the ability to produce weapons grade fissionable material as a by product

That has turned out to be not such a good idea

..except that Uranium based operators are doing everything they can to prevent Thorium development as it puts their installed investment base at risk
