Nuclear pollution consists of radiations emitted from atomic nuclei, these radiations are highly injurious to living beings. They can be originated from the extraction of radioactive minerals, nuclear plant reactors, nuclear research centers, hospitals and medical centers that use radioisotopes, nuclear bomb explosions or accidents with transportation, handling or storage of nuclear material. Nuclear materials remain dangerous for many years, contaminating the environment with radiation that can cause cancer, immune impairment, congenital deficiencies, burns and even death. The damage is proportional to the intensity of the exposition to the radiation. Its persistent feature and high aggression power make nuclear pollution one of the major environmental problems of our time.

nuclear polution is polution which occurred by not handling the radio active material safely or dumping it in free space to minimise this we should confirm that the radio active material should be safely decomposed
