How our nuclear endeavors effected the workers performing the work and that of the public who’s communities were effected . We Only Have One Planet: Thousands of men and women went to work to protect this country during the Manhattan Project and the Cold War, but we didn’t protect them. Many of these workers were exposed to some of the most dangerous materials known to man. A discussion about how our failure to protect the earliest nuclear workers would not only put them at risk but also the public and the environment from our mishandling of radioactive waste. Nuclear Weapons, Power and Medicine. Where do we put the waste from this work, how do make sure it’s handled properly so we can insure the safety of workers and protect the environment.
