Journey to the Safest Place on Earth

The world is facing a growing crisis with over 350,000 tons of radioactive waste and spent fuel rods, with an additional 10,000 tons added every year, posing a significant threat to the environment and public health.

Over 350,000 tons of highly radioactive waste and spent fuel rods are stored temporarily at nuclear power complexes and intermediate sites worldwide, with 10,000 additional tons added annually. This hazardous waste must be stored safely for hundreds of thousands of years, out of reach of humans and other living creatures.
