I believe we should be investing in the potential of nuclear technology based on thorium, to end the use of plutonium and lead to much safer nuclear power plants, less toxic nuclear waste, and less opportunities for nuclear weapons proliferation.

American Politician

Thorium is used in technical or scientific discussions about nuclear energy and elements.

Scientific Term

Understand that 'thorium' implies radioactivity, which makes it subject to safety and environmental concerns.

Radioactivity Context

Thorium is considered an alternative to uranium in nuclear reactors, often discussed in energy debates.

Alternative Fuel

 For someone who's done a lot of counterterrorism work, I can't extol to you how great having something buried below the ground is for proliferation and security concerns. And inside this reactor is a molten salt, so anybody who's a fan of thorium,

 Curie soon found that the element thorium emitted similar radiation. Most importantly, the strength of the radiation depended solely on the element's quantity, and was not affected by physical or chemical changes.
