Dumping of radioactive waste in Europe was prevalent back in the 80's, but the effects of this are still felt today. Just recently a large number of barrels were found in the Baltic [1]. Japan also has announced it will be dumping large quantities of radioactive material into the ocean, because they simply don't know how to handle the situation any better [2]. The Japanese government claims that they intend to make the waste safe, personally I wouldn't trust such a statement. > Have you seen how brown coal is mined? Obliterating entire towns and villages as a matter of routine? I never mentioned the environmental impact of burning or mining coal, nor did I claim it was any better or worse than nuclear power. I'm highlighting that mismanagement of Nuclear has historically been a problem and I don't feel confident that those mistakes aren't repeated in the future.
