Radioactive for thousands of years

There’s a great insurmountable problem with nuclear waste: It’s radioactive and can remain that way for years, in some cases, thousands of years………………

One large issue in Bataan and RP

The raging debate here is about the structural safety of the Bataan nuclear plant. So far the zone/site for waste disposal has not been identified. One possible site is the South China Sea, with fierce opposition expected from China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, etc.

Or the government may search for a cluster of sites on the mainland of Luzon Island.

No way

In both possible sites of nuclear waste disposal most readers foresee real/heated and fierce opposition from promdis in Bataan, Zambales, all of Central Luzon and such islands as Mindoro, etc.

There’s no way for this project to win approval!
