Warning Future Generations About Nuclear Waste

Posted by kdawson on from the opportunists-we-will-have-always-with-us dept.

Smivs writes "How do we warn people 10,000 years in the future about our nuclear waste dumps? There is a thought-provoking essay in the The Guardian newspaper (UK) by Ulrich Beck concerning this problem. Professor Beck also questions whether green issues are overly influencing politicians and clouding our judgement regarding the dangers of nuclear power."

    Thats ... typically american. "Don't do anything, it'll fix itself" ... *sigh*

    then again, warning people 200-500 years in the future shouldn't be hard, thats only a few generations, and we can't expect human language to change that much...
