Green-washing. Ureka, a new amusement park by Areva glorifying uranium and the nuclear industry

A museum funded mostly by Areva has recently opened in the Limousin region of France. Built on a former uranium mine and close to nuclear waste disposal sites, the museum invites people to come and marvel at the French nuclear industry's glorious mining history and technological prowess. However, everywhere the group conducts its mining activities, from Limousin and the Far North of Canada, all the way to Niger and the Gobi desert, the same concerns are raised about their environmental impact and health risks not only for miners but also for the surrounding populations.
