Plenary – Environmental Chemistry

Cameron Tracy will introduce the Environmental Chemistry sessions with a discussion of "The Sociotechnical Challenges of the Geologic Disposition of Weapons Plutonium." Permanent disposal of weapons plutonium in a geologic repository could reduce global nuclear risk, but burying plutonium—and ensuring that it stays buried—is a major technical and political challenge. This talk will outline obstacles to disposal, progress to date, and potential paths forward.
