May Unearth -Era Stored by the U.S. in Other Countries

A new report finds that melting ice and rising sea levels could disturb left over from American nuclear tests after World War II

Tara Wu - Reporter

"Rising global temperatures could unearth Cold War-era nuclear waste created by the United States and stored in other countries, posing potential issues for the environment and local inhabitants, according to a new report.

"An assessment conducted by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) released earlier this year examined nuclear waste in the , and , three locations with radioactive contamination resulting from American nuclear activity in the decades following World War II. Climate change could cause this nuclear waste to enter the environment, as warming temperatures melt ice sheets that contain radioactive liquid and raise sea levels that could pollute food and water sources with toxic waste, per the study.

"This lingering contamination came from nuclear weapon detonations, including , and accidents at numerous sites around the world. Often, the U.S. government stored this waste near the sites of detonation, Robert Hayes, a nuclear engineer at North Carolina State University, says to Julia Jacobo of ABC News. In Greenland, officials disposed of nuclear waste in the ice sheet, and in the Marshall Islands, they placed it in a container with a concrete cap.

" 'The military was in the rush of the Cold War,' Hayes tells the publication. 'In hindsight, they could have done a better job.' "

Abstract:
"Climate change interacts with the sources and cycling of contaminants, such as radionuclides, in the environment. In this review, we discuss the implications of climate change impacts on existing and potential future sources of radionuclides associated with human activities to the marine environment. The overall effect on operational releases of radionuclides from the nuclear and non-nuclear sectors will likely be increased interference or prevention of normal operations due to weather-related events. For certain dumped at sea and sunken , the impact of climate change and ocean on the release of radionuclides and their subsequent fate in the marine environment should be considered further. Fluxes from secondary sources of radionuclides in the marine and terrestrial environment and cryosphere will change in response to climate change impacts such as sea level rise, warming and changes in precipitation patterns. In addition, climate change impacts may increase the risk of releases of radionuclides from operational and legacy wastes on land to the marine environment. Overall, our synthesis highlights that there is a need to understand and assess climate change impacts on sources of radionuclides to the marine environment to meet environmental and management challenges under future climate scenarios."

This is fundamentally about justice. Small island states face total uninhabitability. 5 billion depend on monsoons we're destabilizing. Those who contributed least to the crisis face the worst impacts.

Any solution that doesn't center equity, human rights & community governance isn't a real solution.

We need BOTH: emergency brake on catastrophic tipping points + accelerator on positive ones.

- The Global Crisis

"Clean air and drinking water and healthy food are the very foundation of a just and livable world. They are already more precious than ever due to the climate crisis.

and are poisoning our water, air, and lands with vast amounts of . Much of the harm is inflicted on , , and white communities, due to and .

Radioactive waste poses a global , in tandem with . The sheer amount of nuclear waste is enough to threaten clean drinking water and healthy food for the whole world.

We are on the frontlines of this problem.

- Nearly one-third of the worldwide total of radioactive waste is in the United States.
- Some communities in the US are already losing their drinking water sources to radioactive contamination.
- Just one part of the radioactive waste in the US irradiated nuclear fuel contains enough radioactivity to make every drop of drinking water on Earth unsafe to consume.

We must solve the twin global crises of climate change and nuclear waste. Global warming amplifies the dangers of nuclear energy. Increasingly , , , and other extreme events increase the risks of nuclear disasters and and spills. And, in turn, the impacts of nuclear energy magnify the dangers of climate change:

- Poisoning drinking water and agricultural land on top of more frequent and severe droughts and crop failures.
- Compounding hurricane and flooding evacuations with .
- And causing people to lose their homes and communities permanently due to radiation.

Its clear: we cant afford the dangers of climate change or nuclear waste. And we certainly cant afford them together.

The solutions to both are at hand. We must act now.

1. To start, we must stop the problems from worsening: no more greenhouse gas emissions, and no more nuclear waste.
2. We need to protect people and the water, air, and food we rely on from the dangers that are upon us. The climate is changing, and we need to protect people for extreme weather, drought, sea-level rise, and food supply disruptions. And we must safeguard our water, air, and land by securing and storing nuclear waste and toxic materials as safely as possible.
3. And, we need to repair the damage and make our world healthy and vibrant again: restoring communities that have been dislocated or polluted, and cleaning up the air, land, and water so we can all thrive, for generations to come."

Norwegian environmental organization had a good day in court yesterday, as they won a battle against big oil. Oil companies must publish all emissions of their products (including use), not just those during production.

Government reaction is - well, we don't care, and have no plans to stop Big Oil.

What is even more interesting is the reaction of state owned media NRK. The victory of the environment is printed in small letters, business as usual in big letters.
