The hazards of nuclear wastes, radioactive particles travel in smoke
Paul Waldon Fight To Stop A Nuclear Waste Dump In South Australia, 4 Jan 2020A morning smoke filled wake up call. Where smoke can go, so can radiation. Smoke is an efficient and effective host for the spread of radioactive particles, just think 2, yes two grams of cesium 137 made into micro particles (the size of a 5 cent piece) and spread as a smoke or gas over an area the size of Adelaide’s CBD would make that such area a radiation exclusion zone for a long time. Australia has a high grade nuclear waste dump at Lucas Heights and it will remain there 10 years or more after the closure of the ANSTO installation, we do not need another radioactive dump. Like a fire, one atomic dump is better than two, two dumps multiply the risks, costs and resources dealing with the hazards of nuclear translocation over 1700 kilometers. https://www.facebook.com/groups/941313402573199/ |
