The Nuclear Question: Lessons From New Mexico with Tina Cordova
In this important episode, we sit down with Tina Cordova, co-founder of the Tula Rosa Basin Downwinders Consortium, to discuss the critical lessons Wyoming can learn from New Mexico's experience with nuclear waste. As Wyoming considers becoming a storage site for out-of-state nuclear waste, Tina shares her personal testimony on the devastating health and environmental impacts that have affected her home state for generations. From New Mexico's uranium mining legacy to the Trinity bomb test site, there are numerous angles that demand careful consideration, research, and debate. What does "safe storage" truly mean? How do we weigh the economic promises against the long-term risks? And what can Wyoming do to avoid the mistakes made by other states? This is one conversation you won't want to miss if you care about the future of Wyoming's land, people, and economy.
