Use No 39 Uplifting the Land with Radioactive Gases

Use No 39 Uplifting the Land with Radioactive Gases The government quango 'Managing Radioactive Wastes Safely' are promoting Cumbria/The Lake District as the national geological dump for nuclear wastes. Professor Stuart Haszeldine has said: "Emplacement of hot wastes will force rock to expand, with the strong probability that new fractures will be created. The fractures can allow radioactive gas to rapidly leak to the surface. Land users and housing at the land surface will be uplifted." http://mrwsold.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Response-to-westCumbria-MRWS-Consultation-Haszeldine-small1.pdf
