A lifetime's Nuclear Waste

“A LIFETIME’S NUCLEAR WASTE

 

This glass paper weight represents the amount of vitrified high level radioactive waste that would result from an individual’s lifetime use of electricity, domestic and industrial, if it was produced entirely from nuclear energy.

 

Now imagine 55 million of them...(Never mind the million of tons of medium and low level wastes).”
