A ANSA news, passed quietly on or near "average", made it known that because of the severe storms which hit the coasts of Scandinavia and the Baltics, was arrested a Russian reactor power plant near St. Petersburg, because of the mud carried by the wind that has clogged the filters of the cooling system with silt, thus triggering the automatic protection.
nuke other news: The New Science On Line Scentist and inform the Oak Ridge facility in Tennessee, built in 1944 in support of the Manhattan Project and which houses over 400 tons of highly radioactive waste, is at risk because of too many fires occurred in the last ten years. In the most pessimistic of a larger fire, according to the DoE, the U.S. Department of Energy, there may be rupture of the containers and release of toxic fumes
and radioactive. Within a radius of 160 km from the plant live 700,000 people.
Two news confirming the heavy legacy of our generation and the future: tons of waste and obsolete plants, which no longer knows how to handle, clean up or disposal. Perhaps the only geological periods could, one day very, very far away, finally bury all this stuff.
Maybe in a million years, in some future drilling (which?) Inhabitants or visitors to the planet by analyzing sediment cores deep, they will find traces of radioactivity mysterious and puzzling to understand the source: a cosmic disaster? material erupted from volcanoes? a climate catastrophe? who knows how will interpret this legacy.
