you see, they bury the nuclear reactor fuel rods in concrete in the ground because the fuel rods have been depleted and used up. there is still an enormous amount of radiation emitted, but not enough to sustain fission for energy.

Concrete blocks out all forms of radiation if it is thick enough so they use that to bury fuel rods in the ground. but if the concrete breaks... that land isn't going to have grass on it for centuries...
