We have to show children in school how our energy is produced, what effect this energy production has on the environment and what everyone of us can do to mitigate this problem.Ĭhildren are then likely to also convince their parents to save energy. Therefore, it is crucial to start education already at young ages. We have to show them how this waste affects the living conditions of people and how it can potentially affect our whole environment.īy educating people about the adverse effects of nuclear waste, we could convince them to save energy in their daily lives and thus to contribute to a reduction in nuclear waste. In order to mitigate the issue of radioactive waste, we also have to inform the public about the negative adverse consequences of nuclear waste. It is just too expensive to carry out space disposal of nuclear waste compared to the alternatives. Moreover, technology at this point in time is not sophisticated enough to accomplish this process in an economic manner. The risk of this method seems to be too high in order to justify it. This increases the probability that one of them will eventually fail.Ī failure of a launch vehicle could potentially lead to catastrophic results, as it may lead to a spread of radioactive material over the whole planet, thus contaminate our whole environment. In order to get the waste into space, many transportation vehicles have to be used. This would remove nuclear waste from our planet.Īlthough the idea seems to be quite promising, there are several problems related to it. Space disposal means to bring the radioactive waste out of our atmosphere and just to drop it into space. Space disposal could be a method used to get rid of nuclear waste, but it seems not a practical method in the near future.
