Opposites can solve nuclear waste problems working together
Allison Macfarlane

In these challenging times of ever-increasing political polarization and strong differing personal opinions, there is hope that diverse points of view can converge to create solutions for difficult problems if we remain focused on the common good.
For us, the common interest is a solution for the broken U.S. program to dispose of the growing inventory of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste from commercial nuclear energy. We strongly believe this is critical to support and enable our projected continuation and expansion of safe, reliable, clean, affordable nuclear power to support the needs of our rapidly evolving national and global societies.
Radwaste Solutions is a specialty magazine dedicated to the decommissioning, environmental remediation, and waste management segments of the nuclear community. Editorial features include the generation, handling, treatment, cleanup, transportation, storage, and disposal of radioactive waste. Created by the American Nuclear Society in 1994, the magazine covers the business, science, and technology of radwaste throughout the United States as well as activities outside of the U.S.
