    No, it doesn’t.

    Nuclear waste won’t change any ecosystem the way that coal/oil waste induced greenhouse effect will drastically harm the planet through climate change, irreparably and irreversible forever.

    A coal plant’s chimney gases are several hundred times more radioactive and harmful than a room full of nuclear waste barrels, and we just dump them into the atmosphere.
