your fox is gotten to the point the by the way, going back to the fox. it's a disaster. because right now they're fighting with their mean guy, chuck referrals that know. meanwhile, in the, in the real world, people would say, what does a network have to do with political ideology? what does a network have to do with both parties? 20 years ago, that might have made sense. today we have become so human us and so petty in our world view that we have to strong everything down and condensed it into that left or right. but cnn or fox. yeah, yeah, it's a really disturbing state of affairs. it's so good to have you on the program line or because you know, making comments the mainstream media would really not like say here, but as always, a great pleasure, legal and media, i list line, i'll go get them tiger. see you soon. thank you, sir. thank you. well, the world needs more hot troops. that's the message from a russian presidential aid of the internet development institute events in moscow who's calling for new content to be produced in the country. we need some sort of
4:31 pm
content showed in the west looking everything and the content should be very straightforward. so we know if there's a soft power already in a good foreign language. because congress unfortunately died in the 20th century. is telling me that some media rude. this is necessary to wipe an ice, to what is happening in the world. step right up, ladies and gentlemen, as we dive right into the mesmerizing world of internet creation and a much like the breathtaking painting internet content is being prompted with a purpose that goes far beyond just entertainment. from amusements of gaining knowledge, rushes national award for content creation is an annual award. the acknowledge the russian creators all over the russian federation that positively impact russian consumers. this year, 500 applications from $100.00 companies have submitted for the award with only $6.00 to $6.00 of them, making it to the final. the winners is elected by
4:32 pm
a vote from a jury of experts. now the nominations include pod cast logs, see the series multi media project set also projects that are dedicated to russian history to edit page, and as well as a given awards to the heroes of russia. our investors divided from out here live from what's going on with the international. thank you for sharing your time with us here in the russian capital. we'll talk soon, the hello. i'm manila chan you are tuned into modus operandi. as the us doubles down on its backing of ukraine, as joe biden says, for as long as it takes many others around the world, fear this is pushing the world to the brink of nuclear war. so with the dues de clock the closest it's ever been to midnight, and the collapse of several nuclear proliferation treaties will explore whether or
4:33 pm
not these fears are warranted. alright, let's get into the m o the, despite what the mainstream media tells you, the conflict in ukraine is unprovoked. if you've been paying attention, you know this to be a false statement. the slow brewing, coo and ukraine under obama, which then led to the my down massacre. the us withdrawal from the iran nuclear deal. and i n f. under trump, the phony baloney minsk agreement. now add the accession of finland into nato. further and circling russia who has stated time and time again, that having native weapons along its borders is an existential dilemma for them. that brings us to where we are today, the risk of nuclear catastrophe,
4:34 pm
whether due to war or to meet energy needs around the world. to help us better understand the new, clear risk will bring in an expert in the field. a kevin camp is a radioactive waste expert at beyond nuclear. he is joining us out from florida. so cabinets earlier this year. russia suspended, it's participation in the new start treaty. that was the last remaining nuclear weapons treaty between the us and russia. even though the expiration was set for february of 2026. but what am i putting seemed to be making a distinction between suspension and a band ending the treaty, citing that russia would not be expanding its nuclear arsenal. this announcement comes 4 years after donald trump withdrew the us from the i n f, the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty. how do you or beyond nuclear read
4:35 pm
what is tantamount to the collapse of all of these treaties? well, it's a very dire situation. the collapse of the treaty agreements about nuclear weapons between the united states and russia. i mean, the bulletin of atomic scientists when it sat it's doomsday clock in january edits closest point ever since 1947. i just 90 seconds to midnight, which means doomsday. risk had only cited the prospect of russia withdrawn from the new start treaty as one of the reasons why it's not the clock so close to doomsday. and now, unfortunately, russia has gone ahead and at least suspended years early before the expiration of the treaty. so it is unfortunate that those were very hard one treaties and i'm taken back to my use a part of why i do this work and have for the past 30 years, was growing up in constant fear of the risk of nuclear warfare as
4:36 pm
a small child and of course, it's not just me, it's not just be on nuclear, it's people all around the world who are kind of holding their breath as a nuclear sabres are rattled on a more and more regular basis. so this is kind of a thrill back to the height of the cold war, which is no fun for anybody because one long move, one mistake, and it could be a catastrophic for the entire world. so a few weeks ago, joe biden made a deal with australia to sell the aussies. a number of us made nuclear powered submarines as part of the new august packed the president and made it a point to say that these aren't nuclear subs per say that they wouldn't be, you know, launching nukes under water. i'm paraphrasing, of course, but these are nukes. a powered subs, what is that exactly mean in terms of safety? like what would happen if one of these subs wrapped well, it's um,
4:37 pm
perhaps true that nuclear weapons would not be supplied to the australians to mount on these nuclear power nuclear propelled submarines. but your point is a good one, i'll just quickly add that having such long range and such ability to stay under water quietly for such long periods of time does give australia a new military capability, which is long distance supply, not the ability to launch conventional weapons all be anywhere in the world because that's where the subs can't go on nuclear propulsion. but your point, your question about a new crew nuclear propulsion itself is a very good one. there have the nuclear powered submarines last us as last week. we are powered submarines to the bottom of the sea, so as russia and certainly one it usually means is the death of the entire crew for one thing. but beyond that,
4:38 pm
you do have atomic reactors on board which are fuels with highly enriched uranium and the high level radioactive waste that builds up in the nuclear fuel. so what that means for the ocean, once a nuclear side is lost to the sea floor or it explodes, our implodes is that the sea cannot have its way with those radioactive poisons. and so there's going to be a release of the radioactive poisons into the ocean. yes, it's a big ocean, but these are alter hazardous. does that instead of deluding to lower and lower concentrations. unfortunately, because we live in a biological planet, they actually re concentrate up the food chain. so c 4 could be contaminated with radioactivity and then consumed by humans from such radio, active poisoning of the oceans. and you know, just to raise another radioactive risk to the oceans right now, the focusing by the h e. japan nuclear catastrophe has been bad enough already. in the past dozen years,
4:39 pm
but unfortunately, the japanese government and tokyo electric power company are talking about in planning any time now it could happen is soon as the spring, which is now, they're talking about beginning to dispose of radioactive waste water into the ocean on purpose and various governments, the russian government, the chinese government, pre and government, and others have objected to this radioactive waste water dumping plan. and they have close to 1500000 tons of radioactive waste water that they want to dump into the ocean over many years. but they don't need to be doing this just a cost saving measure. they should be storing this radioactive waste water until it radioactively decays. one of the worst ingredients in there is radioactive, tritium, which is radioactive hydrogen. it's very difficult to impossible to filter out
4:40 pm
because it's so small in size, but you could store it and it has a hazardous persistence of a 123 years. so if you store it, suggest over a century radioactive treaty m world k, and won't be there anymore. and so that's what they should do instead of treating the ocean like a radioactive industrial sewer. but in addition, i mean there are a lot of radioactive poisons in this waste, louder increasing that h e a. and the same would be true on a nuclear powered sort, marine in the fuel itself. if you were to lose the solved and the core would to flow into the ocean eventually overtime or right away, you have more than 200 radioactive poisons in there. some of the more well known ones are things like to tony m, several this different isotopes, which are much longer lasting than trudy. i'm trudy. i'm with a 123 years of hazard. but an element like plutonium, 239 has 240000 years of hazard. so russia has just
4:41 pm
made a deal with its neighbour bell, a roof to build a storage facility for russian tactical nukes, near the bell of russian western border and exchange for russia, helping them to modern, modernize versus war plains, the surrounding nato. countries like lab, fee, lithuania and poland. they are uneasy about this to put it mildly. what are your thoughts on that? oh, it's another drawback to the height of the cold war. i mean, it was such a wonderful day in the early 1990 is when not only dollars, but also ukraine agreed to return the nuclear weapons of the soviet union, stored on their own soil. back to russia, making valerie, some ukraine, nuclear weapons free country is which was a wonderful thing, was real progress towards the ultimate abolition of nuclear weapons. which is what has to happen as called for by the treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons. so
4:42 pm
for russian nuclear weaponry to return to the russian soil is not a good thing. it's very provocative. it increases the risks as the international coalition on the evolution of nuclear weapons. i can as pointed out, the 2017 winters of the nobel peace prize along with the body shop, the survivors of hiroshima and nagasaki. so unfortunately, the more nuclear saber rattling that happens in the world, the greater the tensions escalate. the more or to unity for mistakes or intentional use of nuclear was coming up next, the u. k. is providing the key of regime with depleted uranium shells. what does this mean for the long term health of those exposed to it and the environment will discuss it when we return more with kevin temps. sit tight and we'll,
4:43 pm
we'll be right back. the hi. i'm accepted and i'm here to plan with you whatever you do. do not watch my new show. seriously. why watch something that's so different opinions that he won't get anywhere else. welcome to please, or do the have the state department to see i a weapons bankers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your facts for you. go ahead. change and whatever you do. don't want my show stay main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called stretching time, but again, it's not, we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way inside the
4:44 pm
4:45 pm
camp, a radioactive waste expert from beyond nuclear is back with us to discuss. thank you for sticking around with us, kevin. so recently your organization beyond nuclear, published an article regarding the u. k. government sending depleted uranium shells to ukraine for use in the challenger to tax. can you talk to us about that piece? elaborate on it. what are depleted uranium shells? and why is this a bad idea? well, i'm just to go back to the earlier question. actually latimer pollutant cited the british supplying depleted uranium munitions to ukraine as a reason, or the reason that russia would be deploying nuclear weapons to dollars. so, just an interesting tit for tat there. what depleted uranium munitions are, are very solid, very dense munitions and so they are sometimes referred to as the tank busters. so uranium is the heaviest element on the periodic table, at least in nature or artificial elements like um,
