Godd - set Jovial straight please.

You mean that we do in fact have very good methods for storing nuclear waste. We do. Synroc for instance.

Booby, I doubt you know much more than what Profs Google and YouTube have told you. Sorry but clinging to that liar Dubyne like a turd to a blanket shows me you do not know much science at all and lack the ability to think clearly and logically.

All the Dubyne lies I exposed—you couldn’t refute but still believed Dubyne.

Sorry.

2017 lining up to be the second hottest year despite no El Nino shows me AGW is accelerating!

Much more radioactive.

Umm mthats why they are more dangerous, having said that though it also depends on the type of emission they produce and what they do in the body.

Nuclear has to be in our future for baseload generation, together with renewables.

Storage of waste is an issue to be addressed.

Will do some reading on this and post what I find.

Many of us have already told you.
We don't need you to
1 start another topic
2 regurgitate stuff you are currently ignorant of as you already do on this forum.

You don't listen... Roll Eyes

Why would anyone listen to Grendel?

http://thestringer.com.au/major-uranium-leak-endangers-kakadu-but-played-down-58...

In 2010, millions of litres of radioactive water from the Ranger uranium mine flowed into Kakadu’s wetlands.

The Traditional Owners opposed then plans for a huge expansion of the 30 year old mine by ERA. At the time, the ERA attempted to downplay a spike in contaminated water flowing from the Ranger to Kakadu’s Magela Creek between April 9 to 11. 40 Aboriginal people lived downstream from the site where a measure probe recorded up to five times the warning level of electrical conductivity – including uranium, sulphate and radium contaminants.

“As more of our people understand the death knell dangers of uranium mining we will then come together in greater numbers and we will close down Ranger and Olympic Dam,” said Mr Buzzacott.

Is that above or below the danger level? Oh, electrical conductivity?
