After the re-instatement of the nuclear power phase-out in Germany, the debate about the safe long-term storage of radioactive waste from the nuclear reactors is gaining renewed momentum.  In this article, Kate Galbraith focuses on Germany – and cites R. Andreas Kraemer of Ecologic Institute – but also gives an overview of the situation in other countries.  

The article is available online.
