Estonian public concerned about radioactive waste from planned nuclear power plant.

The handling of radioactive nuclear waste is one of the public’s biggest
concerns in discussions about potentially building a nuclear power plant in
Estonia, pollsters have found. In 2024, the government will make a decision
on whether or not to build a nuclear power plant in Estonia.

This will be based on a report currently being put together by the Ministry of
Environment. Surveys show nuclear energy is seen as an alternative to using
shale oil to create energy. But the public’s attitudes can be broadly split
into three groups: supporters, opponents and skeptics.
