nuclear waste: ‘stick it in the middle of Australia’
Oz ‘the perfect N-dump’
August 11, 2009
NUCLEAR waste from around the world should be brought to Australia for disposal, a global energy expert said yesterday.
There is a great opportunity for Australia to make lots of money as the use of nuclear energy increases, said Professor Paul Stevens, senior research fellow at Chatham House, the London-based Royal Institute for International Affairs………………………..
“One of the problems of nuclear, of course, is the waste disposal. But I get frustrated over this. Surely it is not beyond the wit of humankind to come up with a solution.
“The screamingly obvious one is to stick it all in the middle of Australia, because you’re geologically secure and politically stable.
“You would charge for the honour of doing this.”
