RADIOACTIVE POLLUTION

• Types of radio activity: natural radioactivity;

• uranium mines and production of ore;

• places of processing of uranium ores (tail storages of radioactive waste);

• nuclear explosions.

Radioactive pollution can be defined as the release of radioactive substance or high-energy particles into the air, water, or earth as the result of human activity:

Radioactive pollution can have to do with Nuclear power, fuel, or weaponry. The main source of radioactive pollution are nuclear power plants.

The only way to stop this is by shutting down the main source but to get this too happen it would take a lot of mind power and a sense of politics. Yet radio active power is not the biggest pollution problem.

THERMAL POLLUTION

Define: Thermal Pollution

The increase in temperature of a body of water due to the discharge of water used as a coolant in industrial processes or power production; can cause serious damage to aquatic life.
