It has been recommended that storage of nuclear waste, after sufficient pre-treatment, should be done in suitably shielded containers buried within the rocks, about 500 m deep below the earth’s surface. However, this method of disposal is meeting stiff opposition from the public. Why do you think this method of disposal is not agreeable to many people?

in every situation there is a chance of the leakage of nuclear wastes
when we look back to basics we have all learnt that nuclear radiations are very harmful and may cause mutations in the genes
these mutations may be carried out to the next generation and offsprings
the fear of radiation always lies in the bottom of our hearts when we bury nuclear wastes

Nuclear waste
Explanation:
Nuclear waste is very harmful because of the radiations from it turns out be fatal to organisms, radiation causes mutations at a very high rate which alters the genetic makeup of an organism and can result into death
When nuclear waste is buried about 500 m deep below the earth’s surface it may affect the population on land because there might be chances of leakage and when it will come in contact with the soil or ground water it will turn out be very fatal for all living organisms
Chernobyl incident is an example of harmful effect of nuclear radiations which caused a disaster in the history
