Overview
This poster advises on how radioactive waste enters the food chain through underground nuclear testing and through radioactive waste dumped on the ocean floor in drums.
It was published jointly by Vanuatu Pacific Community Centre and Corso. France used another of its territories - Moruroa - for nuclear testing between 1966 and 1996.
