There lacks a safe way of nuclear disposal, despite the harm caused by nuclear waste. Nuclear power generates electricity with little emissions of carbon dioxide and other waste products, most of which are radioactive. These waste products can be harmful to both the environment and human life. Notwithstanding the risks that may be posed by poor nuclear disposal, most governments pay little attention to this issue, during public policy making. As a result, many communities place use of land on nuclear facilities on the top list of locally unwanted land uses (LULUs). Again, these communities do not have confidence on the ...
