A considerable increase in nuclear power capacity will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and save fossil resources. But what would be the environmental impact of a massive nuclear power based economy? No system is completely leak tight; therefore one must face the risk of radioactive material being dispersed in the environment. What would be the expected impact on human health and bio-systems?
