Antinuclear

Switzerland recently shipped old Swiss Made plutonium to the US to be diluted in South Carolina and buried in the still collapsing WIPP (New Mexico). It also sent some Swiss HEU waste to be buried in the US.

The UK, on the other hand, is getting shot of some high level Swiss nuclear waste. While this is important from the point of view of justice and so that Switzerland learns that producing nuclear waste has consequences for which they must take responsibility, the conditions of an earlier shipment, shown below, do not appear safe.

This is a 2011 shipment in Basel, which sits near the French, German and Swiss border. Does this look secure? Clearly not! Switzerland needs to stop sending nuclear waste to Sellafield. And, needs to stop making it! Switzerland could probably easily go renewable if they would simply stop overheating buildings.
