In that era, exploitation was the main problem and scientific research the main reason for having a marine reserve.

If the world embraces nuclear energy, where will the deadly waste go?

THOUSANDS of canisters of highly radioactive waste from the world's most nuclear-energised nation lie, silent and deadly, beneath a jutting tip of Normandy.
