The toxic radioactive waste going into the ocean is the equivalent of a nuclear accident such as Three Mile Island each year, only it never stops. Every 'recycling' nuclear facility in the world is just like this one. This means humanity is enduring and suffering from the radiation released from many nuclear accidents on a never ending basis.
At 47 minutes into the video; below is a picture of the outflow pipe from La Hague, taken from the video above. This pipe goes out into the ocean, where the plant pours out highly radioactive waste 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The equivalent is like dumping 33 million 200 litre barrels of waste.
La Hague is extremely unprofitable. It’s one of the most irradiated areas on the planet. This is where german CASTOR radioactive waste transports are being reprocessed – the largest amount then goes to “Gorleben” (map), an emergency interim storage location for this violent deadly waste – because no repository is possible. The first PUREX nuclear fuel reprocessing facilities were built in the USA.
Reprocessing plants such as La Hague operate mostly with military grade plutonium. They are an invention of the military. And the used PUREX method is an invention of the military also. La Hague emits, with the support of the CASTOR, more than 1,000,000 CURIES of Tritium each Year:
La Hague emits 1 MILLION CURIES PER YEAR. Remember: 1 Curie per km² = 37,000 Bequerel per m². 20 Bequerel per Kg inside the body cause heart problems and can lead to death.

Basic knowledge for pro human activism: “Chance for children carcinogenic tritium emissions from each reactor every second: 100%” – first two pages above are from a 300 pages long german document (not for the public):
60 radiation particulate monitoring stations are currently delivering data to the International Data Centre of the Preparatory Commission for the CTBTO in Vienna. There the IAEA conceals all of the meaningful radiation data:
Cancer and leukemia rates are much higher the closer you get to these reprocessing and nuclear energy production facilities, globally. Of course, because radiation is invisible and hard to detect, you will see none of this, so these reprocessing facilities look pristine and innocent.

Via Maureen Roy: "2001, Dr. John Gofman sent me a memo (copies are on the table) citing some of the same research along with his own research
and commenting that tritium is 4 to 5 times more mutagenic than had previously been believed." In plain English, this means that (a) tritium is dangerous, and (b) current regulations for tritium emissions are setway too permissively. I’ll come back to the issue of regulatory agencies and regulations in a minute. For now, I
want to highlight simply that any Livermore Lab official, or anyone else for that matter, who tells you that tritium
is “not that dangerous” is not correct and is not taking the scientific research done over the past 15 years into account."http://www.trivalleycares.org/MaryliaTritiumLLNL06.pdf
