Mad Science. Newsweek's Daren Brisco claims Yucca Mountain dump is "sound science" but the facts say otherwise

In the December 1 issue of Newsweek, under the utterly misleading banner "Project Green", writer Daren Briscoe urges president-elect Obama not to cancel the Yucca Mountain radioactive waste dump, claiming that "sound science already comes down firmly on the side of Yucca Mountain." Clearly, Briscoe did not research the actual science itself which has identified numerous technical problems with the site. The Institute for Energy and Environmental Research lists the many technical and scientific problems at Yucca.
