Nuclear Waste Dome at Risk from Rising Seas

Did you know there’s a giant concrete dome in the Marshall Islands holding nuclear waste from old US bomb tests? Rising sea levels are creeping up on it, and scientists are sounding the alarm. If the ocean floods it, there’s a real risk of radioactive contamination for locals—who barely contributed to climate change in the first place. It’s wild that the people least responsible are facing the biggest mess. Should big polluters pay up for the damage? #Science #ClimateCrisis #MarshallIslands
