Another Excellent Reason to Stop Uranium Mining

I worked with the Army for almost 15 years as a civilian and know the patriotism and dedication of the individuals that belong to the armed forces. What I didn’t know is that during Desert Storm that weapons using depleted uranium were used and sickened not only the enemy but our own troops. Where does depleted uranium come from? The cast offs of the uranium mining industry. The bulk of what is mined is not used for nuclear power, it’s considered waste in the mining industry. However, it’s highly radioactive waste. It would seem that they’ve found a use for it. I was shocked when I watched this video.
