Intern research paper arguing that global nuclear waste mismanagement constitutes "nuclear colonization" — a pattern in which marginalized and Indigenous communities disproportionately bear the environmental, health, and security risks of nuclear energy and weapons production. Uses four case studies: San Onofre (SONGS), Kazakhstan's Semipalatinsk Test Site, the Marshall Islands, and African uranium mining (Niger, Namibia, South Africa).
Relevant to SLF's mission as a values-aligned framing piece connecting SONGS to a global environmental-justice narrative.
