A significant increase in public investment spending would boost jobs in the short run and pay enormous dividends in more rapid productivity growth in coming decades. In contrast, the payoff to spending cuts would be depressed job growth in the next few years and foregone productivity gains in the longer run.
Each year, nuclear power generation facilities worldwide produce about 200,000 m 3 of low-and intermediate-level radioactive waste, and about 10,000 m 3 of high-level waste including used fuel designated as waste.he most radioactive form of waste is categorized as high-level waste and whilst accounting for only 3% of the volume of all the radioactive waste produced (equating to around 25 cm 3 per UK citizen per year), it contains 95% of the radioactivity.
And, if we were to really look at it, the average person leaves an extraordinary amount of waste. According to the Environmental Protection Agency an American generates 2 kilograms of trash a day. This is 29 pounds per week or 726 kilograms a year. Even more alarming is the fact that this is household trash and does not include the waste produced by companies in creating the products that an average consumer buys.
