Question
Hi Mr.Kadiroglu!
My project group from chemistry class is doing a debate on whether it is possible to safely store/dispose of nuclear waste? (We are pro)
What are your views on this?  Do you believe that it is safely to store nuclear waste without the necessary precautionary measures?   Thank you!


Answer
Whooops!

I just discovered this question when I answered another question. I was away from home and lecturing in South Africa when you asked me this question. I did not have an Internet connection there and also I did not have spare time then to answer your question. Terribly sorry for the delay. Is it too late to answer the question? If not please let me know. I will answer it right away.
