Journey to the Safest Place on Earth

The world is storing over 350,000 tons of highly radioactive waste and spent fuel rods, with an additional 10,000 tons added annually, posing a significant environmental and health risk.

Over 350,000 tons of highly radioactive waste and spent fuel rods are stored temporarily at nuclear power complexes and intermediate storage sites worldwide. This waste, produced by human activity, requires safe storage for hundreds of thousands of years, out of reach of humanity and other living creatures.
