About Terra Perpetua

TerraPerpetua.org is an independent, non-profit project dedicated to mapping the world's most hazardous waste repositories.

The long-term storage of nuclear and high-level waste poses a unique challenge to humanity. With some materials remaining dangerous for millennia, a robust and accessible record is essential for the safety of future generations. We believe a modern, digital platform is the most effective way to address this challenge.

By gathering data from official sources, we provide a transparent, global overview of the long-term storage of nuclear and other high-risk materials.
