Re: Disposing of nuclear waste
[QUOTE=Fishteacher73]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).
I agree Fishteacher73; Nuclear waste is not the only source of polution that we are facing. It is however the one source that will have the longest lasting effects on the human existence. This may not be an absolute however, we continue to produce toxic compounds at an ever increasing rate. We should certainly be conserned about all of these threats.
