Day 33 cont ☢️☢️☢️☢️

“If #PeterDutton (#Liberal) ☢️ were to form government, safety could come to the fore again because it would need to overturn the #FederalBan on #NuclearEnergy, implemented in 1999 by #JohnHoward (ex PM, Liberal) in a deal with #TheGreens.

Despite the dangers being dismissed by Labor☢️ (AUKUS) and the Coalition ☢️, Caldicott remains concerned about #NuclearWaste being improperly stored in #Australia and contaminating water supplies – or even a #Chernobyl-like #reactor meltdown.

“It’s not being discussed at all, which is amazing to me”, Caldicott says. “People are very ignorant.”” — #HelenCaldicott MD

Q Where is the hottest Nuclear waste in Australia right now? (hint 1950s Nuclear tests exploding #Plutonium above ground)

That's the rub with #NuclearEnergy : It's never over when it's over.

"Chornobyl isn’t safe anymore... again" [12:39 min]

Quote by KI:
"Apr 25, 2025
Chornobyl disaster occurred in the early hours of April 26, 1986, in Soviet Ukraine. Nearly 39 years after the worst nuclear disaster in history, Russia’s brazen attack on the $2 billion New Safe Confinement (the sarcophagus enclosing the destroyed reactor) in February 2025 poses a new potential radioactive danger as engineers race to repair the damage.
The Kyiv Independent’s Kollen Post dives into why the restoration is not as simple as it may seem."

Day 26 cont ☢️🔥🌊💨🌀

“Sydney residents shaken awake by early morning #earthquake in #NSW Hunter Valley: Preliminary information indicates the 4.6-magnitude #quake occurred at a shallow depth of 10km”

“The quake struck at 2.55am on Wednesday near #Singleton in the New South Wales #HunterValley, about 200km north of #Sydney, Geoscience Australia #seismologists said.

…

The quake’s #epicentre was about 36km from #Liddell, where the #Coalition has proposed to build a ☢️ #NuclearPower ☢️ plant.”

A reminder the LNP and #PeterDutton have no policy for nuclear accidents.
