The Runit Dome in the Marshall Islands is a hulking legacy of years of US nuclear testing. Now locals and scientists are warning that rising sea levels caused by climate change could cause 111,000 cubic yards of debris to spill into the ocean.
As the effects of global warming and accompanying extreme weather events become more common, I suspect we will find out just how much our nuclear infrastructure depends on a stable and basically functioning civil infrastructure supporting them. Good times.
