Claire Catt on Your Say – the ultimate financial disaster of the Nuclear Fuel Chain Royal Commission’s plan
Surely this is when it is at it’s most dangerous levels.
Why then cannot it go straight into the presumably “safe” method of storage deep underground that is promoted as “best practice” for storage of nuclear waste?
No comments yet.

We plan to built this repository without any idea how to actually do this since it has never been done before, not anywhere including Finland. There they have spent billions of dollars for a dump still unfinished, for waste produced by them requiring no transport to speak of. If it will work and for how long is unknown.
It is my guess this underground pipe dream will never be built and we will be left with mountains of toxic waste in the open, possibly covered with concrete, like in Chernobyl. We’ll have to keep it from all life, protect it from terror attacks, climate change threats and leakage into the environment.
But hey, we probably won’t have to worry about it just yet, more likely our children and grandchildren and a thousand generations after them.
