Report predicts sharp rise in France's radioactive waste by 2030

France's stockpile of radioactive waste could increase from its current 45 million cubic feet to 95 million cubic feet by 2030, according to Andra, the country's nuclear-waste agency. While only 0.2 percent is highly radioactive, some of the material can remain radioactive for more than 2 million years. United Press International
