Re: Disposing of nuclear waste
Is there any way to accelerate a half-life? As large of an issue as it is, does the nuclear waste ammout to the polution produced by petrochemicals? The average human has about 700 times the lead in their system than they did about 100 years ago. The spike in levels co-incides with the intoduction of leaded gasoline (Which will not be fully banned until 2010).
Not particularly on this thread, but an odd fact that came to mind: Thomas Midgley pioneered both tetraethyl lead (the lead additive to gasoline) and CFC's. Way to go!
