Deposits and repositories: Electricity wastes in the UK and West Germany
Abstract Nuclear power and coal, the most important present alternatives for electricity generation, have a wide range of environmental impacts. This paper examines policies for radwastes and acid rain abatement in the UK and West Germany, seeking to explain differences in approach in the two countries and the extent of interactions between the two issues. While many of the national differences can be traced to historical and cultural factors, political structures and institutional arrangements in the UK and Germany have been important in determining responses to environmental pressures within the context of wider energy policy objectives.
